4

4 sheets of plywood X 9$=36$

60$-36$=24$

24$ is left over to buy boxes of nails at 5$ each

24/5=4.8

4 (plywood sheets) x 9 (price of sheets)= 36$
36$ (price of four plywood sheets) - 60$ (total sum) = 24$
24$ : 5$ (price per box) = 4.8, but he can’t but a fraction of a box so he can only buy 4 boxes of nails
