To find the total number of colored pencils in the display, we need to multiply the number of rows, the number of boxes per row, and the number of colored pencils per box:

To find the total number of colored pencils in the display, you need to multiply the number of rows, the number of boxes per row, and the number of colored pencils per box.
Given:
Number of rows = 24
Number of boxes per row = 12
Number of colored pencils per box = 64
To find the total number of colored pencils, perform the following calculation:
Total number of colored pencils = Number of rows × Number of boxes per row × Number of colored pencils per box
Total number of colored pencils = 24 × 12 × 64
Total number of colored pencils = 18,432
Therefore, there are 18,432 colored pencils in the display.
The correct answer is option: 18,432 colored pencils.
