    Answer:

    Minimum of 6 squares.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The dimension of the rectangular carton = 6 by 4 inches.

    The area of the carton = length x width

                                          = 6 x 4

                                           = 24 square inches

    Assume that we have a square of side length 2 inches, then;

    area of the square = length x length

                                   = 2 x 2

                                   = 4 square inches

    So that since all materials is to be used,

    the minimum number of squares that it can produce = \frac{24}{4}

                                                               = 6
