Answer:

The largest  number of pyramids she can make from 20 bars of chocolate is:

  • <u>A. 180</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, you must find the volume of the 20 bars of chocolate, remember that each bar contains 6 cubic inches of chocolate (6 in^3), so:

  • Volume of the bars = 6 in^3 * 20
  • <u>Volume of the bars = 120 in^3</u>

Now, you must find the volume of each pyramid, using the next formula:

  • Volume of a pyramid = 1/3 B * h

Where:

<em>B = area of the square base.</em>

<em>h = height of the pyramid.</em>

How these values are given in the problem, we only replace the values in the formula:

  • Area of a pyramid = 1/3 (1 in^2) * 2 in
  • <u>Area of a pyramid = 2/3 in^3</u>

Finally, we divide the volume of the bars in the volume of each pyramid:

  • Total number of pyramids = 120 in^3 / 2/3 in^3
  • <u>Total number of pyramids = 180</u>
