Question

A box contains 50 packets of biscuits each weighing 120g. How many can such boxes be loaded into a van, which cannot carry beyond 900 kg?

Answer 1

Given, total number of packets = 50
Weight of each packet = 120 g
Weight of a box = 50 $\times$ 120 g = 6000 g = 6 kg [$\because$ 1000 g = 1 kg]
$\therefore$ Required number of boxes $=\frac{900}{6}=150$
