Answer:

2592100m^3 of treasure

Step-by-step explanation:

The question wants to know how much treasure can the pyramid hold. To know that we need the volume of the pyramid. We use this formula to find the volume of pyramids:

1/3 x Bh  (B is the area of the base and h is the perpendicular height of the pyramid).

The base area for this pyramid is going to be the area of the square on the bottom. We calculate the area of the square by multiplying two of it's sides.

920/ 4 = 230

230 x 230 = 52900

Area of the base = 52900m^2

52900 x 147 = 7776300

7776300/3 = 2592100m^3
