Answer:

Each crate can contain 288 baseballs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since one baseball takes up 1 × 1 × 1 space, and each box has 6 × 6 × 2 units of space, then the number of baseballs in one box is 6 × 6 × 2 ÷ 1 × 1 × 1 = 72 baseballs.

So, 72 baseballs can be contained in one box.

Now, since each crate contains 4 boxes, the number of balls contained in each crate is 1 × 4 boxes = 1 × 4 × 72 baseballs = 288 baseballs.

So each crate can contain 288 baseballs.
