6. In the Unit class field, select Quantity
7. In the Decimal precision field, enter a number. Specify the number of decimals that the converted unit of measure must be rounded to when a calculation is completed for the unit of measure.
8. Click Save.
9. Repeat the above steps for Box.

Define unit conversion rules -
1. On the Action Pane, click Unit conversions. Define rules for converting the unit of measure to and from other units of measure in the selected unit class.
2. Click New to open the drop dialog.
3. In the Factor field, enter 12. Conversion factor between the From unit (Pallet) and the To unit (Box).

Also doesn't need to be created since both of these exists in standard. Maybe that isn't the case in the exam? If it is, you can navigate Organisation administration > Setup > Unit conversions and put a standard conversion as instructed.
