Explanation & Answer
Hi there! Thank you for the opportunity to help you with your question!
The number of the boxes is given by taking the size of the room and dividing by the size of the box. You can use any dimension:
Length: 5m/ 10cm = 500 cm/ 10 cm = 50 boxes
Width: 3m/6cm = 300 cm / 6 cm = 50 boxes
Height 2m / 4cm = 200 cm / 4cm = 50 boxes
So the answer is 50 boxes
