Final answer:

To find the volume of the gift box, multiply the length, width, and height. None of the given options are an appropriate approximation.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of the gift box, you need to multiply the length, width, and height of the box. The dimensions of the box are given as 8.75 inches, 4.75 inches, and 2.5 inches. Multiplying these values gives a volume of 98.4375 cubic inches.

None of the given options A, B, C, or D are an appropriate approximation of the volume of the gift box. The closest answer is option C, which is 103.9 cubic inches.
