diet soda = 8
regular soda = 4
8+4=12
Total Boxes = 12
888/12
Value of 1 Box = 74
74 * 8 = 592
592 diet sodas



Short sleeve short = 3
Long sleeve = 7
7+3=10
Total Boxes = 10
460/10
Value of 1 Box = 46
46 * 3
Short sleeves = 138

Hope this helps!

A) In 1st Figure, Blue boxes means unit of diet soda = 8
Green boxed is regular sods = 4

Total Boxes = 12
Value of 1 Box = 888/12 = 74

Now, We know, we have 74 soda in each box, and 8 boxes of diet soda, so the number of diet soda = 74 * 8 = 592

In short, Your Answer would be: 592

B.) Now, In 2nd figure, You can see
Red boxes mean Short sleeve short which is = 3
Green means Long sleeve = 7

Total Boxes = 10
Value of 1 Box = 460/10 = 46

Now, we know we have 46 shirts in each boxes and their is 3 boxes of short sleeves.
So, Number of Short sleeves = 46 * 3 = 138

In short, Your Answer would be: 138

Hope this helps!
