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.

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.
