Answer 2

The correct answer is:

624 crayons.

Step-by-step explanation:

In 12 of the boxes, 28 crayons have not been used; this leaves 64-28=36 crayons that have been used. 12(36) = 432 crayons have been used in these boxes.

3 full boxes have been used; this is 3(64) = 192 crayons.

Together this makes 432+192 = 624 crayons that have been used.
