--------------
200 mm = 0.2 meters
--> 210*0.2 = 42 cubic meters

you should convert everything to meters or everything to millimeters.

it's easier to convert everything to meters.

volume = length * width * height.

210 square meters is the length * the width.

all you have to do is multiply by the height to get the volume.

200 millimeters / 1000 = .2 meters.

210 square meters * .2 meters is equal to 42 cubic meters.

that's your answer.
