Problem to try at home

Our class puzzled over a problem today. The answer was debated, but will only be fully solved next week. Try at home with mom or dad and see what they think the answer might be...

There are 10 markers in one  Crayola box. A crate holds 200 Crayola marker boxes. How many crates are needed for 20,000 markers?

We had the following answers most often:
10 crates,
100 crates
and 20 crates. Hmmmmm...Which is correct?
