Answer:
800%
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Volume of a square based pyramid</u>
where:
- a = base side length
- h = height
<u>Given values</u> for Pyramid A:
- a = 14 inches
- h = 6 inches
Substitute the given values into the formula to find the volume of <u>Pyramid A</u>:
Given:
- Volume of Pyramid B = 3136 in³
To find how many times bigger Pyramid B is than Pyramid A, divide the <u>volume of Pyramid B</u> by the <u>volume of Pyramid A</u>:
Therefore, the volume of Pyramid B is 8 times bigger than the volume of Pyramid A.
8 as a percentage is 800%, since 800/100 = 8.
Therefore, the volume of Pyramid B is 800% the volume of Pyramid A.
To verify this, find 800% of the volume of Pyramid A:
⇒ 800% of 392
= 800/100 × 392
= 8 × 392
= 3136
