First, we need to find the area of the base (B) of the shipping container.

B = length x width
B = (20 1/2) ft x (12 1/4) ft
B = (20.5) ft x (12.25) ft
B = 250.625 ft²

Now, we can find the volume of the shipping container by multiplying the base area by the height (h).

V = B x h
V = 250.625 ft² x 8.25 ft
V = 2071.40625 ft³

Therefore, the volume of the shipping container is 2071.40625 cubic feet.
