To calculate the volume of a pyramid, you can use the formula:

\[
\text{Volume} = \frac{1}{3} \times \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height}
\]

To apply this formula, we first need to identify what the measurements represent.

Assuming that:
- The base is a rectangle with a length of 20 ft and a width of 15 ft.
- The height of the pyramid is 24 ft.

First, calculate the base area:

\[
\text{Base Area} = \text{Length} \times \text{Width} = 20 \, \text{ft} \times 15 \, \text{ft} = 300 \, \text{ft}^2
\]

Next, use the base area to find the volume of the pyramid:

\[
\text{Volume} = \frac{1}{3} \times \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height} = \frac{1}{3} \times 300 \, \text{ft}^2 \times 24 \, \text{ft}
\]

Now calculate:

\[
= \frac{1}{3} \times 7200 \, \text{ft}^3 = 2400 \, \text{ft}^3
\]

Thus, the volume of the pyramid is **2400 cubic feet**.
