When you fold the rectangular sheet to make a box, the corner you have cut will become the height. Write down and you can see for yourself.

A metallic sheet is of rectangular shape with dimensions 48 m x 36 m. From each of its corners, a square is cut off so as to make an open box. If the length of the square is 8 m, the volume of the box (in m cube) is:

A)4120 m cube
B)4140 m cube
C)5140 m cube
D)5120 m cube

Since , a square of 8 is cut off from the corners. So, the open box becomes a cuboid of length (48 - 2*8) and breadth (36- 2*8 ) and height 8

length = 32 m, breadth = 16 m and height = 8 m, Therefore Volume of cuboid = l*b*h = 32*16*8 = 5120m cube.

Option D
