Explanation:

Step1: Recall volume formula for rectangular - prism

The volume \(V\) of a rectangular - prism is given by \(V = l\times w\times h\), where \(l\) is the length, \(w\) is the width, and \(h\) is the height.

Step2: Identify the dimensions

Here, \(l = 8\) ft, \(w = 4\) ft, and \(h = 4\) ft.

Step3: Calculate the volume

\(V=8\times4\times4\)
\(V = 128\) cubic feet

Answer:

A. 128 cu. ft
