To find the volume and surface area of the figure, I need to know the shape of the figure and how the given dimensions relate to it. Based on the measurements you provided, it seems like this could be a rectangular prism or possibly a different shape.

Let’s assume it’s a rectangular prism where:

  • The length (l) = 9.4 in (assuming this is the longest dimension),
  • The width (w) = 4 in,
  • The height (h) = 2 in.

Volume

The volume \( V \) of a rectangular prism can be calculated using the formula:

\[ V = l \times w \times h \]

Substituting the values in:

\[ V = 9.4 , \text{in} \times 4 , \text{in} \times 2 , \text{in} \]

Calculating it:

\[ V = 9.4 \times 4 \times 2 = 75.2 , \text{in}^3 \]

Surface Area

The surface area \( SA \) of a rectangular prism can be calculated using the formula:

\[ SA = 2(lw + lh + wh) \]

Substituting the values in:

\[ SA = 2(9.4 \times 4 + 9.4 \times 2 + 4 \times 2) \]

Calculating each term:

  1. \( lw = 9.4 \times 4 = 37.6 \)
  2. \( lh = 9.4 \times 2 = 18.8 \)
  3. \( wh = 4 \times 2 = 8 \)

Now, summing these:

\[ lw + lh + wh = 37.6 + 18.8 + 8 = 64.4 \]

Now multiply by 2 for the surface area:

\[ SA = 2 \times 64.4 = 128.8 , \text{in}^2 \]

Final Answer

  • Volume: \( 75.2 , \text{in}^3 \)
  • Surface Area: \( 128.8 , \text{in}^2 \)

If the figure has a different shape, please provide more details, and I can recalculate accordingly.
