#35# meters cubed.

Volume of a pyramid is given by:

#V=1/3bh#

where:

#b# is the base area of the pyramid

#h# is the height of the pyramid

So, we get:

#V=1/(color(red)cancelcolor(black)3) *color(red)cancelcolor(black)3 \ "m"*3.5 \ "m"*10 \ "m"#

#=35 \ "m"^3#

#35m^3#

#V=1/3xx"base area"xx"height"#

assuming the base is a rectangle

base area# =3xx3.5=10.5m^2#

#V=1/3xx10.5xx10#

#=35m^3#
