Answer:

650 cannonballs

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The stack of Cannonballs is really the sum of squares.

The top layer is 1^2

The second layer is 2^2

The Third layer is 3^2

....

layer 12 ( the bottom layer) is 12^2

The formula for this is

n*(n + 1)*(2n + 1)/6

n = 12

12(12 + 1)(2*12 + 1)/6

12 * 13 * 25/6

650

The sum of this pyramid is 650 Cannonballs
