To find out how many sacks of potatoes, each weighing 18 kg, can be loaded into a truck that can carry 15,750 kg, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the total weight the truck can carry**: The truck can carry a total weight of 15,750 kg. 2. **Identify the weight of each sack of potatoes**: Each sack of potatoes weighs 18 kg. 3. **Set up the division to find the number of sacks**: To find out how many sacks can fit in the truck, we will divide the total weight the truck can carry by the weight of each sack: \[ \text{Number of sacks} = \frac{\text{Total weight the truck can carry}}{\text{Weight of each sack}} = \frac{15,750 \text{ kg}}{18 \text{ kg}} \] 4. **Perform the division**: \[ \frac{15,750}{18} = 875 \] 5. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the truck can carry **875 sacks** of potatoes.
