Answer:

A=12,000 m^3

Explanation:

First, here is the area of the pyramid.

A= 1/3 Bh

Now, let's define our variables.

B= 900 m^2

h= 40 m

We will plug them into the equation.

A= 1/3 (900)(40)

I will simplify by dividing 900/3 to get rid of the fraction.

A= 300(40)

A=12,000

Hope this helps!
