To find the total number of books in the truckload, we need to multiply the number of cartons by the number of boxes in each carton and then multiply that by the number of books in each box.
So, the formula to find the number of books in the truckload is:
Total number of books = Number of cartons * Number of boxes in each carton * Number of books in each box
This can be represented as:
Total number of books = x * y * z
Therefore, the total number of books in the truckload is given by the expression x * y * z.
please help me with this question
(a) a truckload of books contains x cartons.
(b) each carton contains y boxes and each box contains z books.
(c)how many books are in this truckload?
