A pyramid has 4 faces. :D

Not quite.
A pyramid is a generic term used to describe a polyhedron with a polygonal base and a number of triangles rising from that base to meet at an apex. A pyramid whose base is a polygon with n-sides (or vertices) has n+1 faces, n+1 vertices and 2n edges, where n ≥ 3.

Four faces four vertices
the answer is that, if you look at the base and count the edges that's how much more faces there would be on the pyramid. Example, if i have a hexagonal - based pyramid, a hexagon has 6 sides so the faces in the middle of the solid are six also so a hexagonal-based pyramid will have 12 faces. :)
4, each of which is a triangle.
A hexagonal pyramid has 7 faces.
The faces are the flat, triangle-shaped surfaces that make up the surface of the pyramid. A pyramid has four faces.
