Answer 1

Answer:

Volume of Beads = 84 mm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Side of base = 6 mm

Height = 7 mm

Find:

Volume of Beads

Computation:

Volume of Beads = Volume of a square pyramid

Volume of Beads = [1/3][Area of base][h]

Volume of Beads = [1/3][6 x 6][7]

Volume of Beads = 84 mm³
