Answer:

The two possible numbers of cupcakes that she could buy can be 6,12,18 etc.

Explanation:

As given:

Cupcakes are packed 6 to a box.

Abby only buys full boxes of cupcakes.

So, basically if she only wants full boxes, then she must get cupcakes in multiples of 6. Like : 6,12,18,24....

Therefore, any number that is a multiple of six is acceptable here.
