Question

There are 27 cars and motorcycles in a parking if there are 84 wheels altogether. How many cars are there ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of cars be x and motorcycles be y.

x + y = 27     -------- (1)

Number of wheels in motorcycles = 2 and cars = 4.

There are 84 wheels altogether.

=> 4x + 2y = 84     ------ (2)

Solve 1 * 2 and 2, we get

=> 2x + 2y - 4x - 2y = 54 - 84

=> -2x = -30

=> x = 15

Place x = 15 in (2), we get

=> 4x + 2y = 84

=> 60 + 2y = 84

=> y = 12

Hence, the number of cars = 15
