Answered by GPT 3.5
The formula for the volume of a rectangular pyramid is V = (1/3) * base area * height.

Given:
Base length = 16 mi
Base width = 16 mi
Height = 8 mi

First, calculate the base area:
Base area = 16 mi * 16 mi = 256 mi^2

Now, plug the values into the volume formula:
V = (1/3) * 256 mi^2 * 8 mi
V = (1/3) * 2048 mi^3
V = 682.67 mi^3

Therefore, the volume of the rectangular pyramid is 682.67 cubic miles.
