    The volume of a pyramid by definition is given by:

    V = (1/3) * (ab) * (h)

    Where,

    ab: area of the base

    h: height

    For The Cholula pyramid:

    V1 = (1/3) * (1476 * 1476) * (217)

    V1 = 157583664 feet

    For The Cheops pyramid:

    V2 = (1/3) * (755 * 855) * (480)

    V2 = 103284000 feet

    We observed that:

    V1> V2

    Answer:

    The Cholula pyramid has the most volume
