step 1
convert pounds to ton
1 ton------> 2204.62 lb
<span>each crate weighs 80 pounds
so
by proportion
1/2204.62=x/80
x=80/2204.62-----> x=0.036 ton
each crate weighs 0.036 ton
step 2
divide 2 ton by 0.036
2/0.036=55.11 crate----------> 55 crate
the answer is
</span>the greatest number of crates that can be loaded onto the elevator is <span>55
alalternative method
</span>step 1
convert ton to pounds
1 ton------> 2204.62 lb
a freight elevator has a weight limit of 2 ton
2 *2204.62 -----> 4409.24 lb
step 2
each crate weighs 80 pounds
divide 4409.24 by 80
4409.24/80=55.11 crate----------> 55 crate
