Length of sheet, l = 4.234 m

Breadth of sheet, b = 1.005 m

Thickness of sheet, h = 2.01 cm = 0.0201 m

The given table lists the respective significant figures:

Quantity

Number

Significant Figure

l

4.234

4

b

1.005

4

h

2.01

3

Hence, area and volume both must have least significant figures i.e., 3.

Surface area of the sheet = 2 (l × b + b × h + h × l)
