The volume of a square pyramid is given by the formula V = (1/3) * B * h, where B is the area of the base and h is the height of the pyramid.
First, we need to calculate the area of the base. Since the base of the pyramid is a square with a side length of 3 in, the area of the base is 3 * 3 = 9 square inches.
Now we can plug the values into the formula to find the volume:
V = (1/3) * 9 * 5
V = 3 * 5
V = 15 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of the crystal perfume bottle is 15 cubic inches.
