Hii dear,

# Answer- A=8.72 m^2 and V=0.0855 m^3.

# Given-
l = 4.234 m ...(4 significant figures)
b = 1.005 m ...(4 significant figures)
h = 2.01 cm = 0.0201 m ...(3 significant figures)

# Solution-
Area and volume both must have least significant figures i.e. 3.

Surface area of the sheet
= 2 (l×b + b×h + h×l)
= 2 (4.234×1.005 + 1.005×0.0201 + 0.0201×4.234)
= 2 (4.25517 + 0.02620 + 0.08510)
= 2×4.360
= 8.7209478
= 8.72 m^2 (3 significant figures)

Volume of the sheet
= l×b×h
= 4.234×1.005×0.0201
= 0.085528917
= 0.0855 m^3 (3 significant figures)

Hence, our answer is A=8.72 m^2 and V=0.0855 m^3.
