Answer:

the volume of the pyramid is 156 cubic centimeters

Explanation:

Hello, I can help you with this.

the volume of a pyramid can be calculated as:

$V=(1)/(3)b*h\\$

where

V is the volume of the pyramid

b is the base of the pyramid

h is the height of the pyramid

Step one

All you need to do is put the values into the equation,check the units, square centimeter for area and, centimeter for height

Let

b=the base of the pyramid=26

b=26

h= the height of the pyramid=18

h=18

$V=(1)/(3)b*h\\\\V=(1)/(3)26*18\\\\V=(468)/(3)\\V=156\\$

so, the volume of the pyramid is 156 cubic centimeters.

I hope it helps, have a great day.
