    Height of bigger square pyramid = 3.072 meter

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Using equivalent ratios to find the side of the bigger square prism

    128:8 = 250:X

    X = (250 x 8) : 128 = 15.625

    Volume of a square pyramid = a x a x h/3

    Hence to evaluate the height

    250 = 15.625 x 15.625 x h/3

    H = 3.072 meters
