<PRE><B>Question 59610</B>
100%-95%=5%
8 cars = 5% of the cars parked in two spaces.
.
Part/Whole = Percent/100 [Use the formula for percents]
8/x=5/100 [Plug-in the values]
(8)(100)=5x [Cross-multiply]
800=5x [solve for x]
800/5=x
160=x (total number of cars)
.
x/160=95/100 [Plug-in the values of the 95% of the cars parked in one space]
100x=(160)(95)
100x=152000
x=152 cars are parked in one space
