Answer:

50 oranges

Explanation:

Since each orange is measured in grams, we convert the 4 kg to g to start.

4 kg is equal to 4000 g.

Each orange weighs 80 g, so we divide 80g into 4000g.

80 divided by 4000 equals 50.

50 oranges are in the box.

I Hope This Helps!

Answer:

50 oranges

Explanation:

Convert the measurements for them to be the same ie 4kg to g

1kg=1000g. 4kgx1000=4000g

4000g is the mass of all oranges

1 orange=80g

? =4000g that is 4000/80

=50 oranges
