Question

A box contains 50 packets of biscuits each weighing 120g. How many such boxes can be loaded in a van which cannot carry beyond 900kg? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

We divide 900 kg by 120g

Convert 900 kg into g

900000g/120g

=7500 boxes

We can put 7500 boxes in the van

Answer 2

Answer:

First you have to convert 900 kg to g = 900000

Now you have to multiply 120 and 50 = 120g x 50

= 6000g

So, we have to divide 900000 and 6000 g = 900000 ÷ 6000

We have to cancel 3 zeros from both and it will look like

900 ÷ 6 = 150 box

150 boxes can go with the van
