Answer 1

Answer:

4.5 kg of medicine are contained in 1 medicine Box

so 1 kg of medicine ar contained in 1/4.5 box

since the van cannot carry weight above 800 kg

total boxes will be required to pack 800 kg medicine = 800*1/4.5

= 177.77 boxes are required

since the number is in decimal form so we take it's round of value which is 178 boxes.

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.
