The formula for finding the volume of a square pyramid is (1/3) x base area x height.
First, find the area of the base of the pyramid:
Area = side x side
Area = 3 x 3 = 9 square inches
Now, plug the values into the formula:
Volume = (1/3) x 9 x 5
Volume = (1/3) x 45
Volume = 15 inches cubed
Therefore, the volume of the perfume bottle is 15 inches cubed.
