- The person begins with a rectangular metallic sheet measuring 45 m x 30 m.

- From each corner, a square with a side of 10 m is cut off.

- This action creates four corner cutouts, each measuring 10 m x 10 m.

- After cutting the squares, the new dimensions of the base of the box are (45 - 2*10) m by (30 - 2*10) m, resulting in 25 m x 10 m.

- The height of the box is equal to the side of the square cutouts, which is 10 m.

- The volume of the box is calculated as length x width x height = 25 m x 10 m x 10 m = 2500 m³.

- Correct Answer: Option 4 - 2500
