During a business trip, an individual stopped at two rest stops. In the parking lot of the first rest stop, they counted 20 cars

Answer

given,

on first stop

number of car = 20 and number of trucks = 18

on second stop

number of car = 18 and number of trucks = 10

we need to calculate which rest stop has higher ratio of car to truck.

Rest Stop 1

ratio= r₁ = $\dfrac{cars}{trucks}$

r₁ = $\dfrac{20}{18}$

r₁ = $\dfrac{10}{9}$

Rest Stop 2

ratio= r₂ = $\dfrac{cars}{trucks}$

r₂ = $\dfrac{18}{10}$

r₂= $\dfrac{9}{5}$

hence, r₂ > r₁

rest stop 2 has more car to truck ratio than rest stop 1
