weight of one box filled of medicine = 4kg500g=4500g
weight which can be carried by the van = 800kg=800000g
number of boxes which could be loaded on to the van = 800000/4500
=17.77777777777778 boxes
=18 boxes (approximate)
weight which can be carried by the van = 800kg=800000g
number of boxes which could be loaded on to the van = 800000/4500

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.
