Question
4.2.3: Method definition: Volume of a pyramid.
 
Define a method pyramidVolume with double parameters baseLength, baseWidth, and pyramidHeight, that returns as a double the volume of a pyramid with a rectangular base. Relevant geometry equations:

Volume = base area x height x 1/3
Base area = base length x base width.
(Watch out for integer division).

import java.util.Scanner;

public class CalcPyramidVolume {

   //answer goes here//

   public static void main (String [] args) {
      Scanner scnr = new Scanner(System.in);
      double userLength;
      double userWidth;
      double userHeight;

      userLength = scnr.nextDouble();
      userWidth = scnr.nextDouble();
      userHeight = scnr.nextDouble();

      System.out.println("Volume: " + pyramidVolume(userLength, userWidth, userHeight));
   }
}
