Answer 2

`T= B* P`

Explanation:

Given :Each box contain no. of packs P

To Find : Which equation could be used to find the total number of packs of paper, T, that would be in B boxes ordered?

Solution :

We are given that each box contains number of packs of paper = P

So, 1 box contains number of packs of paper = P

So, B boxes contains no. of pack = B*P

Since we are given that the total number of packs of paper that would be in B boxes ordered is denoted by T

So, equation becomes:

`T= B* P`

Hence equation could be used to find the total number of packs of paper, T, that would be in B boxes ordered:

`T= B* P`
