Answer: The number of boxes on the truck is p/n, where p is the total number of pounds and n is the number of pounds per box.

Since, we don't have numbers, we will have to use the letters to write an expression.

The truck holds P pounds, with B boxes and N number of pounds in each box.

We can write and solve the following equation for the number of boxes.

P = BN    Divide both sides by N
P/N = B
