Volume of a pyramid is given by one third of the base area multiplied by the height

 

$${\mathtt{Volume}} = \left({\frac{{\mathtt{1}}}{{\mathtt{3}}}}\right){\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{{\mathtt{16}}}^{{\mathtt{2}}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{15}} \Rightarrow {\mathtt{Volume}} = {\mathtt{1\,280}}$$

 

Volume = 1280 m3
