Question

Natalee wanted to demonstrate the volume of a square pyramid. To do this, she took a hollowed out pyramid that has a base of 25 square inches and a height of 5 inches and filled it with water. She then dumped this water into a hollowed out cube that has a volume of 125 cubic inches. Enter the amount of times that she will need to dump the water from the pyramid into the cube to completely fill the cube

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Natalee transferred water from a square pyramid to a cube. To calculate how many times she will need to dump the water from the pyramid into the cube to completely fill the cube, we divide the volume of the cube by the volume of the square pyramid. Hence:

Number of times = volume of cube / volume of pyramid

The perimeter of the pyramid base = 25 in, hence the length of one side of the bae = 25 / 4 = 6.25 in

Volume of square pyramid  = base² × (height / 3) = (6.25 in)² * (5 in / 3) = 65.1 in³

Volume of cube = 125 in³

Number of times = 125 in³ / 65.1 in³ = 1.92

Answer 2

The amount of times that she will need to dump the water from the pyramid into the cube to completely fill the cube is 1.92.

What is volume?

The capacity of a container of any shape is called the volume.

Natalee transferred water from a square pyramid to a cube. Then,

Given is the perimeter of the pyramid base = 25 in

So, the length of one side of the base b= 25 / 4 = 6.25 in

Volume of square pyramid  = b² × (h/ 3) = (6.25 in)² * (5 in / 3) = 65.1 in³

Volume of cube = 125 in³

Number of times = volume of cube / volume of pyramid

Number of times = 125 in³ / 65.1 in³ = 1.92
