Explanation:

The weight of the car is equal to, W_c=m\times g...........(1)

Where

m is the mass of car

g is the acceleration due to gravity

The normal or vertical component of the force is, F_N=mg\ cos\theta

or

F_N=mg\ cos(13).............(2)

The horizontal component of the force is, F_H=mg\ sin\theta

Taking ratio of equation (1) and (2) as :

\dfrac{F_N}{W_c}=\dfrac{mg\ cos\theta}{mg}

\dfrac{F_N}{W_c}=cos(13)

\dfrac{F_N}{W_c}=0.97

or

\dfrac{F_N}{W_c}=\dfrac{97}{100}

Hence, this is the required solution.
