Answer 1

24 boxes in 4 packs.

36 boxes in 6 packs.

60 boxes in 10 packs.

600 boxes in 100 packs.

Explanation:

If 6 boxes are in 1 pack and 12 in 2, you can use a ratio, which is 1:6 meaning for every 1 pack are 6 boxes.

There are two ways you can get an answer

Multiplication:

For however many packs there are you multiply it by 6 boxes.

For 4 packs, you multiply it by 6 boxes. You would get 24 boxes.

For 6 packs, you multiply it by 6 boxes again getting 36 boxes.

Below is a table I made for an example.

P | B

1 | 6

2 | 12

3 | 18

4 | 24

5 | #

6 | 36

10 x 6 is 60

100 x 6 is 600.

whenever the multiplier starts with 1 and ends in 0, just add the number of zeros behind that number. Example: 7 x 1,000,000 = 7,000,000
