Question

Apples are packed in boxes, each weighing
4 kg 500 g. How many such boxes can be
loaded in a van which cannot carry beyond
99 kgs?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given that:

Medicines are packed in boxes. One box weighs 4kg 500g.

We need to find many the number of boxes that can be loaded in a can that cannot carry beyond 800kg.

Solution:

The weight of one box = 4 kg 500 g = 4 × 1000 g + 500 g = 4500 g { As we know that 1kg = 1000g}

Maximum load can be loaded in can = 800 kg = 800 × 1000 g = 800000 g

Hence total weight=Maximum load can be loaded in can =800000 g

Number of boxes = Total weight / Weight of each box

Number of boxes = 800000/4500 = 177

Number of boxes = 177

Therefore, 177 boxes can be loaded in a can that cannot carry beyond 800kg.

Answer 2

Answer:

22 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

Capacity of one box = 4kg 500g

capacity of the van=99kgs

total number of boxes can be loaded in the van

=4kg 500g ÷99kg

Now,

Convert the kilo grams into grams

we know, 1 kg = 1000g

therefore ,4 kg 500 g= 4 kg×1000+500

= (4000+500)g

=4500g

therefore, 99kg=(99×1000)g

=99000

Next,

$\frac{4500}{99000}$

now cancel the zeros

45÷990

=22 boxes

So,total 22 boxes of apples each weighting 4kg 500g can be loaded in the van with capacity 99kgs

Hope it helps
