Volume of a pyramid

The formula for volume of a pyramid is given as;

Volume = 1/ 3 base × height

Pyramid A

  • height = 8 inches
  • base = 12 inches

Volume = 1/ 3 × 12 × 8

Volume = 32 inches ³

Pyramid B

  • height = 16 inches
  • base = 24 inches

Volume = 1/ 3 × 24 × 16

Volume = 128 inches ³

To find the ratio;

= Volume of pyramid B/ volume of pyramid A

= 128/ 32

= 4

Thus, the volume of pyramid B is 4 times bigger than pyramid A
