can you make that easier to understand
Answered by GPT 3.5
The volume of the rectangular prism is 27 in^3. Since the base and height of the rectangular pyramid are congruent to the prism, the volume of the pyramid will be 1/3 of the volume of the prism.

Therefore, the volume of the pyramid is 27 in^3 * 1/3 = 9 in^3.

Sure! Since the rectangular pyramid has the same base and height as the rectangular prism, its volume is just one-third of the volume of the prism.

So, the volume of the pyramid is 27 in^3 (prism volume) divided by 3, which is 9 in^3.

Therefore, the volume of the pyramid is 9 in^3.
