Surface area of base: 1000cm^2
When calculating surface area of just the base, we ignore the height. Therefore, we just multiply the length and height values.
50cm x 20cm = 1000cm^2

Volume = 10,000cm^3
Volume of a box is calculated by multiplying length by breadth by height.
50cm x 20cm x 10cm = 10,000cm^3

Hope this helped!
