The volume of the box is 8.6 x 10³ inch³ correct to 2 significant figures.

Explanation:-

The dimensions of a box are measured to be 18.4 inches by 17.92 inches by 26 inches.

We need to find the volume of the box.

We are told that the volume of the box can be found by multiplying these three dimensions.

Thus volume of the box = 18.4 inches x 17.92 inches x 26 inches.

                                         = 8572.928 inch³

                                          = 8.6 x 10³ inch³ correct to 2 significant figures.

The answer will be correct to 2 significant figures because 26 has just 2 significant figures.
