    Answer: the height of the melted candies in the pot is 12.2 mm

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The formula for determining the volume of a square base pyramid is expressed as

    Volume = area of base * height

    Area of the square base = 12² = 144 mm²

    Volume of each pyramid = 15 * 144 = 2160 mm³

    The volume of 100 pyramid shaped chocolate candies is

    2160 * 100 = 216000 mm³

    The formula for determining the volume of a cylinder is expressed as

    Volume = πr²h

    Since the pyramids was melted in the cylindrical pot whose radius is 75 mm, it means that

    216000 = 3.14 * 75² * h

    17662.5h = 216000

    h = 216000/17662.5

    h = 12.2 mm
