Explanation / Answer

per day = 10000 telephones per week = 5*10000 telephones=>50000 telephones 1 box = 100 telephones so 500 boxes are needed given that we can stack five so floor area for 100 boxesneeded floor area of one box = 30*30 = 900 in2 so floor area required = 500*900 in2 so floor area required = 450000 in2 allowance is 10% floor area required = 450000*1.10 in2 floor area required = 495000in2
