Answer: 35.328 cubic inches.

Explanation:

Volume of square pyramid =
(a^2)/(3)h , where a = length of base , h = height

Given: For a square pyramid

a= 4.8 cm and h = 4.6

Then, Volume =
(4.8^2)/(3)*4.6

$=(23.04)/(3)*4.6\\\\=35.328\text{ cubic cm}$

Hence, the volume of a pyramid with a square base = 35.328 cubic inches.
