• 1,008 in.³
• 1,167 in.³
• 336 in.³
• 389 in.³
To find the volume of a rectangular pyramid, you use the formula V = (1/3) * base area * height.
First, find the area of the base:
Area of the base = 12 in * 14 in = 168 in²
Now, plug the values into the formula to find the volume:
V = (1/3) * 168 in² * 6 in
V = (1/3) * 1008 in³
V = 336 in³
Therefore, the rectangular pyramid contains 336 cubic inches.
The closest answer choice is:
• 336 in.³
