Respuesta :

Option A

Total number of cookies on a shipping truck when 12 boxes are loaded is 1728.

Solution:

Need to determine correct option of total number of cookies on the truck

From given information

Number of cookies in 1 container = 12  

Number of container in 1 box = 12  

So number of cookies in 1 box = number of cookies in 12 container  

[tex]\Rightarrow \text { Number of cookies in } 1 \text { box }=\text { number of cookies in } 1 \text { container } \times 12[/tex]

[tex]=12 \times 12=144[/tex]

Number of boxes loaded onto 1 shipping truck = 12  

So Number of cookies onto 1 shipping truck = number of cookies in 12 boxes

[tex]\Rightarrow \text { Number of cookies onto } 1 \text { shipping truck }=\text { number of cookies in } 1 \text { box } \times 12[/tex]

[tex]=144 \times 12=1728[/tex]

Hence total number of cookies on a shipping truch when 12 boxes are loaded is 1728. Thus option A is correct
