Final answer:

To predict the number of raisins in the box, multiply the number of raisins in one cup by the number of cups in the box.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, Stephanie counted 27 raisins in one cup of cereal. If there are 12 cups of cereal in the box, we can predict about how many raisins there should be in the box by multiplying the number of raisins in one cup by the number of cups in the box. So, 27 raisins/cup * 12 cups = 324 raisins in the box.
