The volume of the Pyramid is given as,

[tex]\begin{gathered} V=\frac{1}{3}\times Area\text{ of the cross- section}\times height \\ V=\frac{1}{3}\times Area\text{ of the square}\times Height \\ V=\frac{1}{3}\times(s^2)\times h \\ V=\frac{1}{3}\times158^2\times96 \\ V=\frac{2396544}{3} \\ V=798848m^3 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Answer: The volume of the Pyramid is 798848 cubic meters.
