Answer:

The volume of the box is 56 cm ^3

The surface area or the amount of cardboard used is 100 cm ^3

Explanation:

for the volume you multiply the top the side and the bottom of the box together 7*4*2=56 ^3

For the amount of cardboard used we have to find the area of all the sides then add them together. 7*4=28 28*2=56. we multiply it by 2 because there is 2 sides with the same measurements for each side.

2*4=8 8*2=16

2*7=14 14*2=28

56+28+16=100

Hope this helps!
