It is not possible to determine the volume of the prism without additional information about the dimensions of the shape. The fact that both shapes have the same triangular base and height does not provide enough information to calculate the volume of the prism.

if the prism and the pyramid have the same base and height, the pyramid has 1/3 the volume of the prism: in this case, 210/3 = 70.
The actual height does not matter.

Thank you for the correction. You are correct that if the pyramid and prism have the same base and height, the volume of the pyramid will be 1/3 the volume of the prism. In this case, the volume of the prism would be 3 times the volume of the pyramid, or 3*210 = 630 cubic units.
