The volume of a rectangular pyramid is given by the formula V = (1/3) * base area * height.
In this case, the base area is the area of the square base, which is 16 * 16 = 256 square miles.
Given that the height is 8 miles, we can plug in the values to find the volume:
V = (1/3) * 256 * 8
V = (1/3) * 2048
V = 682.67 cubic miles
Therefore, the volume of the rectangular pyramid is approximately 682.67 cubic miles.
