Detailed Solution

Given that 350 boxes can be placed in 25 cartons.
Let us consider the number of boxes can be placed in 16 cartons be x.
Then,

No. of boxes

350

x

No. of cartons

25

16

We can clearly observe that, the more the number of boxes, the more will be the number of cartons.
Therefore, this is the case of direct proportion.
As this is the case of direct proportion, therefore the ratio will remain constant throughout the table that is,
350 25 = x 16  
Multiplying both sides by 16,
350 25 ×16= x 16 ×16  
x=14×16  
x=224   Hence, the number of boxes can be placed in 16 cartons is 224.
Therefore, option 3 is correct.
