单项选择题
A hat company ships its hats, individually wrapped, in 8-inch by 10-inch by 12-inch boxes. Each hat is valued at $7.50. If the company’s latest order required a truck with at least 288,000 cubic inches of storage space in which to ship the hats in their boxes, what was the minimum value of the order ?()
A. $960
B. $1,350
C. $1,725
D. $2,050
E. $2,250
答案
参考答案:E
解析:
An 8×10×12-inch box contains 960 cubic inches. 288,000 total cubic inches divided by 960 cubic inches per box equals 300 boxes. 300 boxes times $7.50 per hat equals $2,250.
