Answer 1

Answer:

The volume of pyramid B is 8 times bigger than the volume of pyramid A

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the volume of the pyramid A.

The volume of a pyramid is calculated by:

V = (1/3)*A*h

Where A is the base area and h is the height.

In our case, the base is a square, so the area is 14 * 14 = 196 in. So, the volume is:

Va = (1/3) * 196 * 6 = 392 in3

Now, to compare the volumes, we just need to divide the volume of pyramid B bt the volume of pyramid A:

Vb / Va = 3136 / 392 = 8

So the volume of pyramid B is 8 times bigger than the volume of pyramid A
