Number of boxes of apples = 15

Each boxes contains = 17 bags of Apples

hence 15 boxes will contains = Number of bags of apples in 15 boxes.

By Using Unitary Method we get;

Number of bags of apples in 15 boxes = $15\times 17= 255 \ bags \ of \ apples$

Hence 15 boxes contains = 255 bags of apples.

Also Given:

Each bag contains = 12 apples

255 bags contains = Number of apples in 255 bags

By Using Unitary Method we get;

Number of apples in 255 bags = $255\times12= 3060 \ apples$

Hence 255 bags of apples contains = 3060 apples.
