Question

Find the volume of this pyramid that has a height of 35cm and base of 18cm and 24cm.

Answer 1

Hey!~ 

The correct answer is b, 5040 cm³.
The equation for calculating volume of a pyramid is $\frac{hwl}{3}$ , 
h= height, w=base width, l=base length.

Hope this helps and have a great day!

Answer 2

The answer is:  [B]:  " 5,040 cm³ " .
__________________________________________________
Explanation:
___________________________________________________
The formula for the:  Volume for a rectangular pyramid ; "V" :

Volume = (Length * width * height) / 3 ;

or, write as:  "V =  (L * w * h) / 3

We are given the units of the base, or the "length (L) and the "width" (W); with are:  "24 cm" and "18 cm" ; 

We are given the "height" (h), which is:  "35 cm" .
_____________________________________________
Let us plug in this values into the formula, and solve for "V" (the volume):




V = (L * w * h) / 3  =  (24 cm * 18 cm * 35 cm) / 3  ; 

                             =  (15,120 cm³ ) / 3 ;

                         V   =  5,040 cm³ ;

      which is:  Answer choice:  [B]:  " 5,040 cm³ " .
