You can put this solution on YOUR website!
You have 450 cars, and the ratio is 11 to 4. Therefore, 11/15 spaces hold full-sized cars and 4/15 hold compact cars. So you take 11 divided by 15 to get the percentage of full-sized car spaces. Then you times the percentage in decimal form by 450 to get the number of full-sized parking spots. Then just minus that from 450 to find the compact car spaces. Do this then check you answer at the bottom of this.\r
