Answer
(a) The probability of selecting a yellow block is 0% or impossible since there are no yellow blocks available.
(b) The probability of selecting a blue block is calculated as follows:
Total blocks = 20 + 25 + 28 + 30 + 27 = 130
Probability of pulling a blue block = ( \frac{25}{130} = \frac{5}{26} \approx 0.1923 ) or 19.23%.

Answer
The number of layers of cans that can be placed upright is calculated by dividing the height of the rectangular box (35 cm) by the height of one cylindrical can (16.5 cm):
( \frac{35}{16.5} \approx 2.12 ) layers. Thus, we can have 2 complete layers of cans.

Answer
The number of cans that can be packed lengthwise in the box is calculated as follows:
( \frac{56\ cm}{12.6\ cm} \approx 4.44 ) cans (round down to 4 cans).
The number of cans that can be packed width-wise is calculated as follows:
( \frac{41\ cm}{12.6\ cm} \approx 3.25 ) cans (round down to 3 cans).
The total maximum number of cans that can be packed in is then:
