Answer:

Total no of 9 boxes can be transported in the elevator with capacity of 1.5 ton and each box of 150kg each

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the greatest number of boxes the elevator can hold first we will find the total capacity of elevator in kgs

maximum weight capacity of the elevator= 1.5 tons

as 1 ton = 907.185 kgs

so 1.5 ton = 1.5 x 907.185 kgs

                 = 1360.78 kg

The formula which will be used is

Total capacity of the lift = no of boxes x weight of each box

to find no of boxes we will re arrange the equation

No of Boxes = Total capacity of the lift/  weight of each box

No\,of\,\,boxes= \frac{1360.78}{150} \\                         = 9.07185\\

So total no of 9 boxes can be transported in the elevator with capacity of 1.5 ton and each box of 150kg each
