The dimensions of a rectangular box are measured to be 75 cm, 60 cm, and 40 cm, and each measurement is correct to within 0.2 cm. Use differentials to estimate the largest possible error when the volume of the box is calculated from these measurements.

The length, width, and height of a box are measured as 6 ft, 8 ft, and 4 ft, respectively, with an error in measurement of at most 0.2 ft in each. Use differentials to estimate the maximum error (in feet) in the calculated volume of the box.
