A. 268
B. 204
C. 297
D. 230

Respuesta :

Answer:

B. 204 pens

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have 10 boxes of 30 pens each, the problem would be like so:

10 x 30 = 300

Now, since we have 32 workers that each take 3, this turns into:

32 x 3 = 96

Finally, because 300 is the total amount of pens and 96 is the amount taken, we just subtract to get:

300 - 96 = 204 pens
