A citrus grower ships grapefruit in boxes of 10. One season, the grower shipped 20,400 boxes of grapefruit.how many grapefruit were shipped.
If one box contains 10 grapefruits and there were 20,400 boxes in one season, then all we need to do is to multiply 20,400 by 10:
20,400 * 10 = 204,000
So the citrus grower shipped 204 thousand grapefruits.
