    Okay. So we know that the bar edge length is 8 cm (6+2) and the height is 6 cm ...

    And a pyramid's volume is 1/3 of a prism's volume.

    If the base is square and both sides are 6 cm, the area is 36 cm^2. Then you multiply that area by the height: 288 cm^3.

    BUT you have divide that by 3, because a pyramid's volume is 1/3 of a prism's volume: 288/3 = 96 cm^3.

    Answer: 96 cm^3
