Answer 2

Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a box of nails weighs $1\frac{5}{6}$ pounds.

Weight of one box can be written as

$1\frac{5}{6}=\frac{6+5}{6}=\frac{11}{6}$

We need to find the weight of 12 boxes.

Weight of 12 boxes = 12 × Weight of 1 box

$\text{Weight of 12 boxes}=12\times \frac{11}{6}$

Cancel out the common factors.

$\text{Weight of 12 boxes}=2\times 11$

$\text{Weight of 12 boxes}=22$

The weight of 12 boxes is 22 pounds. Therefore the correct option is A.
