Question 597808: The pyramid and box above have the same W, L, and H. The volume of the pyramid is 21 cm3. What is the volume of the box?

Square Pyramid:
Volume = (Length*Width*Height)/3

V = (LWH)/3

21 = (LWH)/3

21*3 = LWH

63 = LWH


Since the volume of a rectangular box with length, width and height of L, W, and H is V = LWH, and LWH = 63, this means that the volume of the box is 63 cubic centimeters.
