It's not quite clear what dimensions are, but the figure is a small pyramid atop a larger truncated pyramid.
Use the volume formula v = 1/3 Bh for each part and add them up.
To get the volume of the bottom part, figure out what its height would be if it weren't truncated, and then subtract the part that was chopped off.
