To determine the volume of a pyramid, you can use the formula:
Volume = (1/3) * base area * height
In this case, the base of the pyramid is a square with side length 112 feet, so the base area is (112 ft)^2 = 12,544 ft^2. The height of the pyramid is given as 71 feet.
Plugging these values into the formula, we get:
Volume = (1/3) * 12,544 ft^2 * 71 ft
= 1/3 * 890,624 ft^3
≈ 296,874.67 ft^3
So, the correct answer is:
296,874.67 ft.3
