Answer:

293 packs is the maximum the store can sell.

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine the number of packs that can be made with 4 pairs of socks.

(1173 pairs)/(4 pairs/pack) = 293.25 packs

We can't sell 0.25 pack (1 pair of socks), so drop that fraction to yield 293 full packs.  Donate the spare pair, so to speak, to the local IRS agent.
