Can u please only answer b . i know the answer to a.

The weight of b boxes would be 60b.
In fact, a certain number of boxes will weight
[tex]\underbrace{60+60+60+\ldots+60}_{\text{number of boxes}}[/tex]
This repeated sum of the same number is exactly what multiplication means and so if you sum 60 with itself b times, you'll end up with [tex]60\times b[/tex]
