Question

If the volume of the pyramid shown is 108 inches cubed, what is the area of its base?

Answer 1

Answer: 81/2 inches squared or 40.5 inches squared

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a pyramid = bh/3

so V = bh/3

V = 108 and h = 8, so plug these in

108 = 8b/3

b = 108 *3/8

= 40.5 inches squared

or if you want a fraction, 81/2 inches squared
