Each car on a computer train holds 20 people. On a particular morning, 5 cars were 90% full and 3 cars were 65% full. If the people were rearranged to fill as many cars as possible, how many cars would be filled?

Respuesta :

Answer:

7 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of cars to be filled is shown below:

A car that is 90% full and the total people is 20 so 90% would be

= (.90)(20)

= 18

A car that is 65% full and the total people is 20 so 65% would be

= (.65)(20)

= 13

Now

Total number of people = (5)(18) + (3)(13).

= 129

Now the number of cars to be filled is

= 129 ÷ 20

= 6.45

= 7 cars
