The volume of a rectangular pyramid is 60 units. The width of the base is then scaled by a factor of 3, the length of the base is scaled by a factor of 2, and the height of the prism is scaled by a factor such that the resulting solid has a volume 12 times that of the original pyramid. Determine the scale factor used for the height of the pyramid. 12 6
