To find the volume of a rectangular pyramid, we first need to calculate the area of the base, which is a rectangle. The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying the length and width.

Given:
Height (h) = 8 mi
Base length (l) = 16 mi
Base width (w) = 16 mi

Area of the base = l * w
Area of the base = 16 mi * 16 mi
Area of the base = 256 square miles

The volume of a rectangular pyramid is calculated by multiplying the area of the base by the height and then dividing by 3.

Volume = (1/3) * Area of the base * height
Volume = (1/3) * 256 square miles * 8 mi
Volume = (1/3) * 2048 cubic miles
Volume = 682.67 cubic miles

Therefore, the volume of the rectangular pyramid is approximately 683 cubic miles.
