TDMM page 5-68 (page 464) table 5.8 Pull Box would be 15in width for (1) 4in conduit. The box width increases 8in for each additional conduit. * 15in + 8in x 4 = 15in + 32in = 47in

why c? The minimum length of a pull box shall be at least 16 times the diameter of the largest conduit entering the pull box, I believe the answer is 4x16=64 C: is only 60 D: 72 - greater than 64

Because they asking for the width not the length. Also because the on the table on pg 5-83 is says the box width increased 8 in for each additional conduit. So: =Box width 15 in + (4 conduits * 8in) =15in +32in =47in
