Use the formula for the volume of a rectangular pyramid to find the volume of a pyramid-shaped tent whose height is 75 in., width is 111 in., and length is 111 in. when standing.(1 point)

The formula for the volume of a rectangular pyramid is V = (1/3) * base area * height.
First, we need to find the base area of the pyramid.
The base of the pyramid is a rectangle with width 111 in. and length 111 in. The base area is therefore 111 * 111 = 12321 sq. in.
Now we can plug the base area and height into the formula for volume:
V = (1/3) * 12321 * 75
V = (1/3) * 924825
V = 308275 sq. in.
Therefore, the volume of the pyramid-shaped tent is 308275 cubic inches.
