- A rectangular sheet's dimensions are 48 cm x 27 cm.

- From each corner, a square of side 3.5 cm is removed.

- When the squares are cut off, the reduced dimensions become:

- Length = 48 cm - 2(3.5 cm) = 41 cm

- Width = 27 cm - 2(3.5 cm) = 20 cm

- The height of the box formed by folding the sides is 3.5 cm.

- To find the volume of the box, use the formula:

- Volume = Length x Width x Height

- Volume = 41 cm x 20 cm x 3.5 cm = 2870 cm³

- Options provided:

1. 2880 cm³

2. 2780 cm³

3. 2870 cm³
