    So each bar contains 6 and she has 20 so 6 times 20=120

    pyramid volume=legnth times width times height times 1/3

    v=base times height times 1/2

    v=1 times 2 times 1/3

    v=2/3

    volume of 1 pyramid is 2/3 cubic inches

    divide 120 by 2/3 to find out how many pyrimds will fit into amount given

    120/1 divide by 2/3=120/1 times 3/2=360/2=180

    she can make 180 pyramids
