The volume, V, of a pyramid in cubic units is given by

\n" ); document.write( " $\"+V+=+%281%2F3%29Ah+\"$

\n" ); document.write( "

where A is the area of the base and h is the height of
\n" ); document.write( " the pyramid.

\n" ); document.write( "/***************************/\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since we have a pyramid with a base of 6 ft by 5 ft,
\n" ); document.write( "6 * 5 = 30 sq ft, so A = 30
\n" ); document.write( "The height = 8 ft, so h = 8
\n" ); document.write( " /***************************/\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Our formula now reads $\"+V+=+%281%2F3%29%2A30%2A8+\"$

\n" ); document.write( "After doing the math, we see that V = 80 & bob's your uncle! \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
