Answer:

50 Oranges

Explanation:

4 kg = 4000 grams because 1 kg = 1000 grams.

4000 grams divided by 80 grams gives us the number of oranges in the box since each orange weighs 80 grams.

4000/80 = 50.

Answer:

50 oranges

Explanation:

First we need to know the conversion measure.

1kg=1000grams

And if a box is 4kg heavy, it means only oranges weighing 4 times 1000grams can fill it up.

If an orange now weigh 80grams. It means how many oranges will measure up to 1000grams.

1000/80 = 50

50 oranges, each weighing 80grams will fill up a box to weigh 4kg
