Step-by-step Step-by-step explanation:

the volume of a pyramid is:

volume = (1/3) • base_area • height

(area = length • width)

(area) • (height) = (volume)³

Example:

area = 12cm² (12 cm squared)

height = 4cm

12 • 4 = 48cm³ (48 cm cubed)

Answer:

area: 6 • 8 = 48(1/2) = 24cm²

height: 12

volume: 24 • 12 = 288cm³(1/3) = 96cm³
