Hello!

First you have to find the volume of the cube

To do this we use the equation a^3

a is a side length

24^3 = 13824

The maximum pyramid can have a maximum side length of 24 and a maximum height of 24 since that is what the cube measurements are

The equation for the volume of a square pyramid is


a^(2) (h)/(3)

a is side length
h is height

put in 24 for the values


24^(2) (24)/(3)

Square the 24


576 (24)/(3)

Divide

576 * 8 = 4608

The answer is B) 4608 cubic centimeters

Hope this helps!
