Question

The formula for the volume of a pyramid is V=1/3 BH Which of the following equations is equivalent to the given formula?

Answer 1

V = (1/3)*B*H
3V = B*H ... multiply both sides by 3
B*H = 3V
B = (3V)/H ... divide both sides by H

Answer: Choice A

Answer 2

Option A.

Explanation:

The given formula for the volume of a pyramid is

`V=(1)/(3)Bh`

We need to find the equation which is equivalent to the given formula.

Multiply both sides by 3.

`V* 3=(1)/(3)Bh* 3`

`3V=Bh`

Divide both sides by h.

`(3V)/(h)=(Bh)/(h)`

`(3V)/(h)=B`

Hence, the correct option is A.
