    Answer with explanation:

    There are few number of white ball in 10 boxes.

    Total number of Black balls in the box=60

    So, we have to write number 60 in such a way that, such that it can be represented as sum of ten different digits.

    That is the only way by which we can distinguish between ten boxes.

    60 = 0 + 1+2+3+4+6+8+10+12+14

    Place these balls in ten different boxes.

    So, by this way we can distinguish between boxes.
