Volume of a pyramid in cubic units = 1/3*base area*height
Volume = 1/3*base area*height
Volume of a pyramid = 1/3*base area *height
1/3 * B * h In this formula you find the area of the base, times it by the height, then divide that answer by 3. (also can be 1/3 * l * w * h - they are the same thing)
Volume of a squared based pyramid: 1/3*base area*height
