Answer:

1

Explanation:

In a pyramid, there is only one base that touches the ground.

However, in a prism, there are two bases, two of the same ends.

The front of the name of the shape also hints:

If it's an octagonal prism, there are two octagon bases.

If it's a hexagonal pyramid, there is one hexagon base.
