Given:

Outer length of the box = 12 cm

Outer width of the box = 12 cm

Outer height of the box = 10 cm

Thickness of wood = 1 cm

Internal length = 12 - 1 - 1 cm = 12 - 2 cm = 10 cm

Internal width = 12 - 1 - 1 cm = 12 - 2 cm = 10 cm

Internal height = 10 - 1 - 1 cm = 10 - 2 cm = 8 cm

Volume of internal box = l x b x h

= 10 x 10 x 8 cm3

= 800 cm3

Hence, option 4 is the correct option.
