Answer:

Alex will make $29.85 from selling the boxes.

Explanation:

The first step is to convert 3000 g into kilograms.

1000 g = 1 kg, since Alex has 3000 g he then has 3 kg.

If each both holds 1 kg, Alex is able to fill 3 boxes.

Since he can sell each box for $9.95, he will make triple that amount.

$9.95 + $9.95 + $9.95 = 3 x $9.95 = $29.85
