Can someone help me please? :) Pyramid A is a square pyramid with a base side length of 12 inches and a height of 8 inches. Pyramid B is a square pyramid with a base side length of 36 inches and a height of 24 inches. How many times bigger is the volume of pyramid B than pyramid A?

find the volume of each and then divide the volume of the one the left with the volume of the one of the right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

V=1/3(l*w*h)
