- A rectangular sheet with dimensions 48 cm x 27 cm has squares of 3.5 cm cut from each corner.

- After cutting, the effective dimensions of the base become (48 - 2*3.5) cm by (27 - 2*3.5) cm.

- This leads to a new base of 41 cm x 20 cm.

- The height of the box formed is 3.5 cm.

- Calculating the volume: `Volume = length × width × height = 41 cm × 20 cm × 3.5 cm`.

- So, the volume is 2870 cm³ (note that cm³ is standard for volume, not cm²).

- Option 1: 2880 cm³.

- Option 2: 2780 cm³.

- Option 3: 2870 cm³.

- Option 4: 2860 cm³.
