Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:2586810 m³Step-by-step explanation:To find the volume of a pyramid, we find the area of the base multiplied by the height, then mulitplied by 1/3:V = 1/3BhSince the base is a square, the area of this is found by the side length squared, making our formulaV = 1/3s²hV = 1/3(230)²(146.7)V = 1/3(52900)(146.7)V = 1/3(7760430)V = 2586810
