Volume = 87 m³

You need to multiply the area and the height to find the volume. If you have the length, width, and height, then you need to multiply and 3 and divide it by 3. Hope I helped :)

Answer: 29.0

Explanation:

The volume of a pyramid is equal to l*w*h/ 3 and we know that the length times the width is the same as the base.

so we will multiply 8.7 * 10= 87 /3= 29
