​

Answer 1

Answer:

150

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

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

We need to find many the number of boxes that can be loaded in a can that cannot carry beyond 600kg.

Solution:

The weight of one box = 4 kg  = 4 × 1000 g  = 4000 g   { As we know that 1kg = 1000g}

Maximum load can be loaded in can = 600 kg = 600 × 1000 g = 600000 g

Hence total weight=Maximum load can be loaded in can =600000 g

Number of boxes = Total weight / Weight of each box

Number of boxes = 600000/4000 = 150

Number of boxes = 150

Therefore, 150 boxes can be loaded in a can that cannot carry beyond 600 kg.
