Hey friend!
Here is your answer!

$1kg = 1000g \\ 4kg \: 500g = 4500g \\ 800kg = 800 \times 1000 = 800000g \\ number \: of \: boxes \: that \: can \: be \: loaded \: in \: the \: van \\ = 8000 \div 4500 \\ = 177 \\ hence \: 177 \: boxes \: at \: maximum \: can \: be \: loaded \: in \: the \: van.$
Hope it helps you!

Answer 2

Given :

Medicine is packed in boxes, each weighing 4 kg 500g.

ㅤㅤ

Find :

How many such boxes can be loaded in a van which cannot carry beyond 800 kg?

ㅤㅤ

We know that ,

We know the given medicine is 4kg 500g.

→ 4kg + 500g

→ 4000 + 500

→ 4500 g

ㅤㅤ

We know that given weight that van can carry is 800kg.

→ 800kg × 1000g

→ 800000g

ㅤㅤ

Applying formula :

★ Boxes = No.of boxes the van can carry/Weight of the medicines.

ㅤㅤ

Calculations :

→ 800000/4500

→ 177 boxes

ㅤㅤ

Therefore, the van can carry 177 such boxes.
