Correct Answer: Option n
Explanation:
(a) Vehicles produced in February = 40 + 25 + 30 = 95
(b) Fraction of the vehicles in February that were cars = \(\frac{40}{95} = \frac{8}{19}\)
(c) Total number of buses from January to March = 20 + 30 + 50 = 100
(d) Ratio of lorries in February to that in March = \(25 : 35 \equiv 5 : 7\).
| VEHICLES | Jan | Feb | Mar |
| CAR | 10 | 40 | 5 |
| LORRY | 15 | 25 | 35 |
| BUS | 20 | 30 | 50 |
| TOTAL | 45 | 95 | 90 |
(a) Vehicles produced in February = 40 + 25 + 30 = 95
(b) Fraction of the vehicles in February that were cars = \(\frac{40}{95} = \frac{8}{19}\)
(c) Total number of buses from January to March = 20 + 30 + 50 = 100
(d) Ratio of lorries in February to that in March = \(25 : 35 \equiv 5 : 7\).
