Question 1: How many gift boxes are 5 inches long?

Look at the number 5 on the bottom line. Count how many blue squares are stacked above it.

There are 7 blue squares above the number 5.

✔ So, the answer is 7.

Question 2: How many gift boxes are longer than 2 inches?

“Longer than 2 inches” means we count boxes that are 3 inches, 4 inches, or 5 inches long.

- At 3 inches: 6 blue squares → 6 boxes
- At 4 inches: 3 blue squares → 3 boxes
- At 5 inches: 7 blue squares → 7 boxes

Now add them up:
6 + 3 = 9
9 + 7 = 16

✔ So, the answer is 16.

Question 3: How many gift boxes are shorter than 3 inches?

“Shorter than 3 inches” means we count boxes that are 1 inch or 2 inches long.

- At 1 inch: 2 blue squares → 2 boxes
- At 2 inches: 4 blue squares → 4 boxes

Add them:
2 + 4 = 6

✔ So, the answer is 6.
