Question

Medicine is packed in boxes, each such box weighing 4kg 500g.how many such boxes can be loaded in a van which cannot caery beyond 800kg

Answer 1

Hi there friend !!!


As we all know 1 kg = 1000 grams

Therefore 4kg 500 grams = 4500 grams

Weight of 1 box = 4kg 500 grams = 4500 grams

Maximum weight that the van can carry = 800 kg = 800000 grams.

Therefore ,

No: of boxes the van can carry = Maximum weight that the van can carry / Weight of 1 box

= 800000 / 4500

= 177 boxes

So ,
the no: of boxes that can be carried in the van = 177

Answer 2

Maximum Wt that can a van load is 800 kg
Wt of one box is 4kg 500gm=4.5kg
No. of boxes that can be loaded are = 800/4.5=177.77
Therefore maximum no. of boxes that can be accommodate are 177 boxes

Hope this helps u:)
