if it takes an employee 1 hour to uncrate and stack 160 boxes, at a rate of 8 bucks per hour, much does it cost to uncrate a box?
is it 160/8 or 8/160.
I know it's easy, but my brain isn't working, im getting really confused.

It costs $8/160 to uncrate AND STACK a box. or 5 cents.
HOWEVER, you only want him to uncrate- NOT STACK.
So I'm saying 2.5 cents- and it's a trick question.

it's 8/160
you want dollars per box, so that would be the dollars rate divided by the boxes rate
