How many boxes will fit along the height of the shipping crate?

A. 25 boxes
B. 2 boxes
C. 24 boxes
D. 5 boxes



Answer :

To determine how many boxes will fit along the height of the shipping crate, we need to follow these steps:

1. Convert the height of the storage crate from feet to inches:
- Given: The height of the storage crate is 8 feet.
- 1 foot is equal to 12 inches.
- Therefore, the height of the storage crate in inches is:
[tex]\[ 8 \text{ feet} \times 12 \text{ inches/foot} = 96 \text{ inches} \][/tex]

2. Determine the height of the box in inches:
- Given: The height of the box is 4 inches.

3. Calculate the number of boxes that can fit along the height of the shipping crate:
- The number of boxes that fit along the height of the shipping crate is determined by dividing the height of the crate by the height of one box.
- Therefore, the number of boxes that fit along the height of the crate is:
[tex]\[ \frac{96 \text{ inches}}{4 \text{ inches/box}} = 24 \text{ boxes} \][/tex]

Thus, the number of boxes that will fit along the height of the shipping crate is:
[tex]\[ \boxed{24 \text{ boxes}} \][/tex]
