To find the volume of a pyramid, you can use the formula V = (1/3) * b * h, where b is the area of the base of the pyramid and h is the height of the pyramid.
First, find the area of the rectangular base:
Area = length * width
Area = 7.8 feet * 4.5 feet
Area = 35.1 square feet
Now, plug the values into the formula:
V = (1/3) * 35.1 square feet * 9.6 feet
V = (1/3) * 336.96 cubic feet
V = 112.32 cubic feet
Therefore, the volume of the pyramid is 112.32 cubic feet.
