The volume for a pyramid is 1/3Bh. So the volume for each pyramid is .66 cubic inches. Divide 120 by .66 and you have your number of pyramids.

The answer would be b) 180 because there is 120 cubic inches of chocolate total. 20 x 6 = 120 The volume for a pyramid is 1/3Bh. So the volume for each pyramid is .66 cubic inches. Divide 120 by .66 and you have your number of pyramids.
