Question

There are 6 boxes with 5 pouches in each box. If each pouch has 3 crayons, what will the total number of crayons in the 6 boxes be?

• A. 90
• B. 100
• C. 80
• D. 70

Answer 1

The correct option is A 90

Number of boxes $=6$
Number of pouches in one box $=5$
Number of pouches in $6$ boxes $=6\times 5$

Grouping $6$ and $5$, we get $6\times 5=30$.

Number of crayons in one pouch $=3$
Total number of crayons in 30 pouches $=6\times 5\times 3=30\times 3=90$
Hence, there will be $90$ crayons in total in the $6$ boxes.
