Question 145343: A company owns a fleet of trucks and cars. The ratio of trucks to cars is 1:3 and there are 120 vehicles altogether. How many cars? Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If there are trucks, there must be cars in order for the ratio to be 1:3. Trucks plus cars equals 120, so solve to get the number of trucks, then multiply by 3 or subtract from 120 (either way works) to get the number of cars.
