Question

the formula for the volume of a pyramid is v = 1/3 bh, where b is the area of the base and h is the height. rearrange the formula to solve for the area of the base (b). b = 3v/h b = v/3h b = vh/3 b = h/3v

Explanation:

Step1: Start with volume formula

$V=\frac{1}{3}Bh$

Step2: Isolate B

Multiply both sides by 3 to get $3V = Bh$. Then divide both sides by h: $B=\frac{3V}{h}$

Answer:

B = $\frac{3V}{h}$
