1 medicine Packed Box Weighs=4 kg 500 g
1 kg=1000 g
4 kg 500 g in g=(4×1000+500)g
=4000+500
=4500 g
1 medicine Packed Box Weighs=4500 g
4500 g in Kg=4500/1000
=4.5 kg
1 medicine Box Weighs=4.5 kg
Van Can't carry Medicine box over 800 kg
We know 1 medicine Box=4.5 kg
Let Total x Box Weighs 800 kg
Then
Total Box ×weight of 1 box=800
x×4.5=800
4.5x=800
x=800/4.5
x=177.77
Means Total Box=177.77
Since Box Can't be in Decimal.
Approx Value can be 177 or 178
If there is 178 box Total Weighs
178×4.5=801 kg
Van Can Only carry 800 kg
So Answers=177 boxes
