Answer 1

Answer:

Q10) Medicine is packed in boxes, each weighing 4 kg 500g. How many such boxes can be loaded in a van which cannot carry beyond 800 kg? Therefore, 177 boxes can be loaded in the van.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight of a box = 4kg 500g

= 4×1000 + 5004\times1000\ +\ 5004×1000 + 500 = 4,500g

Weight that can be loaded in van = 800kg

= 800×1,000 = 8,00,000g=\ 800\times1,000\ \ =\ 8,00,000g= 800×1,000 = 8,00,000g

No. of boxes that can be loaded =

8,00,000÷4,500 = 1778,00,000\div4,500\ =\ 1778,00,000÷4,500 = 177

Therefore,

177 boxes can be loaded in the van
