To find the volume of a rectangular pyramid, you can use the formula:
Volume = (1/3) * base area * height
First, find the base area by multiplying the length and width of the base:
Base area = 3in x 4in = 12 square inches
Next, substitute the base area (12 sq in) and the height (6in) into the formula:
Volume = (1/3) * 12 sq in * 6in
Volume = (1/3) * 72 in^3
Volume = 24 in^3
Therefore, the volume of the rectangular pyramid is 24 cubic inches.
