Explanation:

Given :The rectangular base is 35 square feet, with a height of 4 feet.

To Find :What is the volume of the tent?

Solution :

Volume of rectangular base pyramid =
`(l * w * h)/(3)`

Since we are given that The rectangular base is 35 square feet, i.e. area of rectangular base = l*w = 35 sqaure feet

Height of pyramid h = 4 feet

Volume of rectangular base pyramid =
`(35* 4)/(3)`

=
`(140)/(3)`

=46.67 cubic feet

Thus volume of the tent is 46.67 cubic feet
