Answer:

8 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion to model this situation. First, write and simplify the given proportion.

trucks to cars;

6 : 2

Simplify,

3 : 1

Assuming that the rate at which trucks and cars are present in the parking lot is constant, one can make the expression,

trucks : cars

3 : 1 = 24 : x

Where (x) represents the unknown amount of cars. One can use cross products to solve this proportion,

3 : 1 = 24 : x

24 = 3x

Inverse operations,

24 = 3x

8 = x
