There are two ways to answer this question.
First, one of the defining characteristics of a hole is it's conspicuous *lack* of anything filling it. Ergo, there are zero cubic feet of earth in this hole. It's a trick question.
If, however, we are looking to find out how much the hole *could* hold, here is how we do it.
The formula for determining volume of a given space is length (l) x width (w) x height (h). Height and depth can be interchanged to suit the specific application.
Given the dimensions specified in the question, l = 4, w = 3, and h (or d) = 5.
4 x 3 = 12. 12 x 5 = 60. Therefore, the solution is that the hole has 60 cubic feet of volume.
