1. Answer:

   Weight of a box = 4kg 500g

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

   Weight that can be loaded in van = 800kg

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

   No. of boxes that can be loaded =

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

   Therefore,

   177 boxes can be loaded in the van.
