Answers
Step-by-step explanation: it can carry
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:-
Medicine is packed in boxes, each weighing 4 kg 500g.
To find:-
How many such boxes can be loaded in a van which cannot carry beyond 800 kg?
Solution:-
Weight of the each box = 4 kg 500g
We know that
1 kg = 1000 g
1 g = 1/1000kg
4kg 500 g = 4+(500/1000) = 4+(0.5) = 4.5 kg
It cannot bear beyond 800kg
So the maximum weight =800 kg
Total possible weight of all boxes which are loaded in the van = 800 kg
Let the number of boxes can be loaded in the van be 'n'
Total weight of all 'n' boxes = 4.5×n = 4.5n kg
=> 4.5n kg = 800 kg
=> 4.5 n = 800
=> n = 800/4.5
=> n = 800/(45/10)
=>n = 800/(9/2)
=> n = 800×(2/9)
=>n = (800×2)/9
=>n = 1600/9
=> n = 177.78(approximately)
So, The number of objects does not a decimal
n= 177.78 ~ 177
n = 177
Answer:-
Number of boxes can ne loaded to packed in the van = 177
