Answer 1

25 boxes could be stacked safely on the pallet.

Explanation:

To determine how many boxes could you stack safely on a pallet if the pallet is 5 feet deep, five feet across, every box is 1 x 1 and the maximum safe stacking height is 5 boxes, the following calculation should be performed:

Pallet = 5 x 5 = 25 square feet

Box = 1 x 1 = 1 square foot

25/1 = 25

Therefore, 25 boxes could be stacked safely on the pallet.
