Answer:

A. 27x<=150

B. x <=5 5/9

C. 5

Explanation:

A. The amount of the boxes in inches has to be less than or equal to the storage unit in inches.

B. X is less than or equal to 27 divided by 150, which is 5 5/9.

C. Since you cannot have 5/9 of a box, you must round down and say that you can only stack 5 boxes vertically.
