i think the answer is 38400 because one box contains about 480*16 papers .
so five boxes contain 5*480*16=38400
16*5 = 80
480*80 ~~
take last digit only 4*8 = 32
so answer must be around 32,000+
Select 38,400.
d is answer ,16*480*5
D: 5 boxes contain 80 reams
thus 80*480=38400
16*5*480 gives totalpapers
Its D.
Ans is D
answer: 38400
D
