Here's a similar question and its answer:

Similar Question
a) What is the pressure acting on the treasure chest?
b) What is the magnitude of the force that acts on the rectangular treasure chest top that is 0.750 m × 0.425 m?

Using 1,030kg/m^3 as seawater density and 9.8 as g:
a) Pressure = (1,030 x 20) x 9.8, = 201,880Pa.
b) Area = (.75 x .425) = 0.31875m^2. Force = (0.31875 x 201,880), = 64,349.25N.
