Question

Three hundred vehicles are parked in a parking garage. Seventy percent of the vehicles are midsized cars. Which equation can be used to find the number of midsized cars in the parking garage?

Answer 1

300 × .7 = 210

210 midsize cars are in the parking garage

Answer 2

Answer:

$0.70\times300=x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of mid sized cars in the parking garage be = x

Total vehicles parked in the garage = 300

And out of 300, 70% are mid sized.

So, $0.70\times300=x$

Therefore, x = 210

So, number of mid sized cars in the garage are 210.
