A Nathan organized pile X of paper on his desk, and Gerald organized pile Y on his desk. The figure shows pile X and pile Y. Each piece of paper in each pile is exactly the same, and both piles consist of the same number of pieces of paper. Which of the following best expresses the relationship between the volumes of pile X and pile Y? The volume of pile X is greater than the volume of pile Y because pile X takes up more space than pile Y does. B C Pile X D Pile Y The volume of pile X is less than the volume of pile Y because pile X has more empty space at the corners than pile Y does. The volume of pile X is equal to the volume of pile Y because the volume of each sheet of paper in both piles is the same, and both piles have the same height. The volume of pile X and the volume of pile Y cannot be compared because the volume in pile X depends on how the pieces of paper are stacked.
