4 shelves

Step-by-step explanation:

-Given that each stand holds 600 boxes and that the stand is 60% empty.

-The number of heavy boxes in the stand is:

$Stand \ Capacity=(1-0.6)\times 600\\\\=240$

-Given that each shelf contains 60 boxes, and that the stand has 240 boxes:

$Number \ of \ shelves=\frac{No \ of \ \ Boxes}{No \ of \ Boxes/Shelf}\\\\=\frac{240}{60}\\\\=4$

Hence, there are 4 shelves filled with boxes.
