Find volume of rectangular pyramid with length of 30cm, width of 20 cm and altitude of 40cm. Proper units
To find the volume of a rectangular pyramid, we can use the formula:
Volume = (length * width * altitude) / 3
Given:
Length = 30 cm
Width = 20 cm
Altitude = 40 cm
Plugging these values into the formula, we get:
Volume = (30 cm * 20 cm * 40 cm) / 3
Volume = (600 cm² * 40 cm) / 3
Volume = 24,000 cm³ / 3
Volume = 8,000 cm³
Therefore, the volume of the rectangular pyramid is 8,000 cm³.
is that correct
Oops, I apologize for the error in my calculation. Let's correct that.
The correct calculation is:
Volume = (length * width * altitude) / 3
Volume = (30 cm * 20 cm * 40 cm) / 3
Volume = (600 cm² * 40 cm) / 3
Volume = 24,000 cm³ / 3
Volume = 8,000 cm³
Yes, the previous answer is correct. The volume of the rectangular pyramid is indeed 8,000 cm³.
