Final answer:

The question asks for the volume of an office building surrounding a courtyard without providing dimensions; therefore, it is not possible to calculate or select the correct option from A) 28 m³, B) 60 m³, C) 64 m³ without additional information.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question relates to finding the volume of an office building that surrounds a rectangular open-air courtyard. To determine the volume of the building, you would need to know the total volume of the rectangular space the building occupies and then subtract the volume of the open-air courtyard. However, since the necessary dimensions are not provided in the question, it is not possible to calculate the volume accurately. The options given, A) 28 m³, B) 60 m³, C) 64 m³, do not come with associated dimensions or a method of calculation, so this seems like a trick question or a question lacking sufficient data.
