A rectangular prism has a height of 12 centimeters and a square base with sides measuring 5 centimeters. A pyramid with the same
base and half the height of the prism is placed inside the prism, as shown in the figure. The volume of the space outside the pyramid but inside the prism is cubic centimeters. NextReset
A rectangular prism is a cuboid so volume of cuboid is base area x height which is 5x5x12=300 volume of pyramid is 1/3 x base area x height = 5x5x6x1/3=50 thus volume outside pyramid and inside cuboid is 300-50=250
