The weight varies directly with the number of boxes, so this means every box weighs the same amount.

Find the weight of a box by dividing the known weight by the number of boxes:

600 pounds / 16 boxes = 37.5 pounds per box.

Now multiply the weight per box by the number of boxes:

37.5 pounds x 12 boxes = 450 pounds

12 boxes weigh 450 pounds
