    3 containers

    Explanation:

    The number of containers would be

    = Annual demand * time * (1 + inefficiency factor) : holding pieces

    = 100 parts * 1.75 * (1 + 0.20) : 72

    = 2.917 containers

    The time is converted from minutes to hour i. e 105 minutes : 60 minutes = 1.75

    The holding piece would be

    = 6 dozen * 12

    = 72

    1 dozen have 12 pieces
