A rectangular prism has a volume of 27 in.3. If a rectangular pyramid has a base and height congruent to the prism, what is the volume of the pyramid?(1 point)
in.3
9 in.3
Explanation:
Since the base and height of the rectangular pyramid are congruent to the prism, the volume of the pyramid will be one-third of the volume of the prism.
Volume of prism = 27 in.3
Volume of pyramid = 27 in.3 / 3 = 9 in.3
Therefore, the volume of the pyramid is 9 in.3.
