Kylie can add 6 books more to fill the box.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Weight limit of each box = 6kg
1 kg = 1000 grams
6 kg = 1000*6 = 6000 grams
Weight limit of each box in grams = 6000
Weight of each book = 750 grams
Already picked weight = 1500 grams
Let,
x be the number of books she can add.
Weight of one book*number of books + Already packed weight = Weight limit of each box in grams
750x + 1500 ≤ 6000
[tex]750x\leq 6000-1500\\750x\leq 4500[/tex]
Dividing both sides by 750
[tex]\frac{750x}{750}\leq \frac{4500}{750}\\x\leq 6[/tex]
Kylie can add 6 books more to fill the box.
