54
384
432
486

Answer 1

The correct answer for the given problem above would be the third option: 432 crayons. So how did we get this number? Given that there are 2.25 cases of crayons and that per case has 24 boxes, so 2.25*24 and this gives us 54 boxes of crayons. Per box has 8 crayons, 54*8 and this gives us the result of 432 crayons. Hope this answers your question.

Answer 2

 54*8 and this gives us the result of 432 crayons. which i think is the right answer
