How many widgets are contained in 2 crates and 2 boxes, if a crate contains p boxes, each box contains c containers, and each container contains 200 widgets?

A. \(400pc^2 + 400pc\)

B. \(400pc^2\)

C. \(800pc\)

D. \(800pc^2\)

E. \(400pc + 400c\)

1 Crate = p Boxes
1 Boxes = c Containers
1 Container = 200 Widgets

So, 2 Crate contains = 400pc widgets
2 Boxes = 2c Containers = 400c

Thus, answer will be (E) \(400pc + 400c\)

How many widgets are contained in 2 crates and 2 boxes, if a crate contains p boxes, each box contains c containers, and each container contains 200 widgets?

A. \(400pc^2 + 400pc\)

B. \(400pc^2\)

C. \(800pc\)

D. \(800pc^2\)

E. \(400pc + 400c\)

Since a crate contains p boxes and each box contains c containers, and each container contains 200 widgets, there are (p)(c)(200) widgets per crate. Similarly, there are (c)(200) widgets per box.

So, the number of widgets in 2 crates is 2(p)(c)(200) = 400pc widgets and the number of widgets in 2 boxes is 2(c)(200) = 400c widgets.

Thus, the total number of widgets is 400pc + 400c.

Answer: E
