Answer:

each box has 52 in it

Step-by-step explanation:

first you subtract 288 from 548  =260

this is the total number of nails minus the total 1 inch nails

then you divide 260 by 5 because he has five boxes of 2 inch names which means that you have to account for the even number of nails in each box

Answer:

There were 52 2-inch nails in each box.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of nails in each 2 inch box be = x

As Tony bought 288 other nails and 5 boxes of 2 inch nails with a total purchase of 548 nails, we get the following equation;

288+5x=548

=> 5x=548-288

=> 5x=260

x = 52

Hence, there were 52 2-inch nails in each box.
