Answer

$V = 80,000 \text{ ft}^3$

Work Step by Step

In this exercise, we are asked to find the volume of a rectangular pyramid, which is given by the formula: $V = \frac{1}{3}$lwh, where $V$ is the volume, $l$ is the length of the pyramid, $w$ is its width, and $h$ is its height. Let's plug in the lengths of the length, width, and height into the formula: $V = \frac{1}{3}(80 \text{ ft}) (60 \text{ ft}) (50 \text{ ft})$ $V = \frac{1}{3}\cdot 240,000 \text{ ft}^3$ Multiply again: $V = 80,000 \text{ ft}^3$
