Ok, here we have a volume related question, so in this case is needed find the amount of candy in the box, so let's do it:

To find the amount of sweets, first we will find those of a layer, and then we multiply the result by the number of layers.

We know that a layer has 6 rows and 11 columns of sweets, then the number of candies in a layer will be the result of multiplying the number of rows by the number of columns.

So we have this:


\text{Candies in a layer=6}\cdot11=66

Since we know the number of candies in a layer, let's multiply by three which is the total of layers.

Total Candies=66*3=198

So, the correct answer is A.
