Answer:

A) 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the width: 6 and multiply it 3 times because it says triple.

That gives you: 6 * 3 = 18

Then subtract 4 because it says four inches less than.

That gives you: 18 - 4 = 14

Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the box is = x inches

Let the width of the box = y inches

"The length of the box is 4 inches less than triple of its width"

x = 3y - 4

"Box is 6 inches wide"

y = 6 inches

By putting y = 6 in the equation

x = 3×6 - 4

  = 18 - 4

  = 14 inches.

Therefore, Length of the box is 14 inches.

Option A. is the answer.
