The problem involves distributing 500 boxes, each weighing 20 kg, from a factory to a store using a vehicle with a maximum load capacity of 865 kg. The driver weighs 65 kg. The question asks for the minimum number of trips required to transport all the boxes.

### Step-by-step solution:
1. **Total weight capacity for boxes**:
   - The vehicle's maximum capacity is 865 kg, and the driver weighs 65 kg.
   - The available load capacity for the boxes = \( 865 \, \text{kg} - 65 \, \text{kg} = 800 \, \text{kg} \).

2. **Number of boxes per trip**:
   - Each box weighs 20 kg.
   - The number of boxes that can be transported in one trip = \( \frac{800 \, \text{kg}}{20 \, \text{kg/box}} = 40 \, \text{boxes/trip} \).

3. **Total number of trips**:
   - The total number of boxes to be transported = 500 boxes.
   - The number of trips needed = \( \frac{500}{40} = 12.5 \).

Since the number of trips must be a whole number, the driver will need **13 trips** to transport all 500 boxes.

Do you want more details or have any questions? Here are 5 related questions:

1. How would the number of trips change if the driver weighed more?
2. What if the weight of each box was 25 kg instead of 20 kg?
3. If the distance between the factory and the store was doubled, how would that affect the problem?
4. How would the number of trips be affected if the truck’s capacity was increased to 1000 kg?
5. How can we calculate the total fuel consumed if we know the vehicle’s fuel efficiency?

**Tip:** Always check how non-cargo factors, like the driver's weight, affect total capacity when solving logistics problems.

Sebuah mobil A pengangkut barang akan mendistribusikan sebanyak 500 kotak dari pabrik ke sebuah toko. Berat beban maksimal mobil tersebut adalah 865 kg dan setiap kotak memiliki berat sebesar 20 kg. Diketahui berat supir pengangkut adalah 65 kg dan jarak tempuh yang harus dilalui supir dari pabrik ke toko sejauh 15 km (begitu pun sebaliknya). Jika seluruh kotak harus didistribusikan ke toko tersebut, berapa kali minimal pengangkutan yang harus dilakukan oleh supir hingga ia kembali ke pabrik asalnya?
