You can put this solution on YOUR website! 771*771*486/3=96,299,442 FT^3 IS THE VOLUME OF THE PYRAMID.
35*20*8=5,600 FT^3 FOR EACH APARTMENT.
96,299,442/5,600=17,196 APARTMENTS EQUAL TO VOLUME OF THE PYRAMID.

where s is the measure of the side of the base and h is the measure of the height. Step 1, plug in your given numbers and calculate the volume of the pyramid. Step 2, calculate the volume of one 35 X 20 X 8 apartment. Divide the results of Step 1 by the results of Step 2. Round down to the nearest integer.
