hope it helps!!!

please mark as BRAINLIEST!!!!!

thanks!

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to solve the given equation: 4500g x n = 80000g, where n in the unknown value, ie, the number of boxes that can be put into the van.

I have converted both to grams to make it easier to solve.

4500 n = 80000

n = 80000/4500

n = 800/45

n = 160/9

n = 17  7/9

we are not going to include the 7/9 part because we cannot add a part of a box in the truck!!!

so, 17 such boxes can be fit into such a truck.

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.
