Final answer:
To determine how many boxes can fit into a carton, divide the volumes of the carton and each box. The correct answer is C) 30.
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate how many boxes with dimensions 3 cm x 4 cm x 5 cm can fit into a carton with dimensions 30 cm x 40 cm x 50 cm, we need to divide the volume of the carton by the volume of each box.
The volume of a box is calculated by multiplying its length, width, and height.
The volume of the carton is 30 cm x 40 cm x 50 cm = 60,000 cm³.
The volume of each box is 3 cm x 4 cm x 5 cm = 60 cm³.
Therefore, the number of boxes that can fit into the carton is 60,000 cm³ / 60 cm³ = 1,000.
So the correct answer is C) 30.
