I apologize, my previous response was incorrect. The volume of a rectangular pyramid is one-third of the volume of a rectangular prism with the same base and height. Since the volume of the prism is 27 in³, the volume of the pyramid would be 27/3 = 9 in³.
Therefore, the correct volume of the pyramid is 9 in³. Thank you for pointing out the error.

The volume of a rectangular prism is three times the volume of a rectangular pyramid with the same base and height. Since the pyramid has a volume of 480 in³, the volume of the prism would be 480 x 3 = 1440 in³.
Therefore, the volume of the prism is 1440 in³.
