Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The box  when shipped is 5 pounds

The box alone =                 2 pounds         Subtract

What's left is                       3 pounds

1 sea turtle weighs            1 pound

3 sea turtles weigh            x

1/3 = 1 / x                             Cross multiply

1*x = 3*1

x = 3

He ships 3 sea turtles.
