Ask a Math Question!
(*note* when I Say prism, I mean rectangular prism.)
1. if the volume of the prism is 16 in^3 what is the volume the pyramid?
2. if the volume of the pyramid is 9 in^3 what is the volume the prism?
3. if the volume of the prism is 24 in^3 what is the volume the pyramid?
4. if the volume of the pyramid is 7 in^3 what is the volume the prism?

Imagine this
You have a rectangular prism.
You have a pyramid
the base of the pyramid is exactly the same size as the base of the prism.
the perpendicular height of the pyramid is exactly the same as the prism.
Then=> The volume of the prism is 3 times greater than the volume of the pyramid.
and => The volume of the pyramid is 1/3 times the volume of the prism.

This should be enough i think.
