Answer:

The answer is option B : 78.

Explanation:

A warehouse has 518 flash drives on hand.

The warehouse manager decides to keep 50 flash drives for high-priority orders and fill six equal-size orders with the rest of the flash drives.

So, remaining flash drives are =
518-50=468

As there are 6 equal-size orders, so there will be
(468)/(6)= 78 flash drives in each box.

Therefore, the answer is option B : 78.
