Answer:

Main St.: 54 cars

Airport: 40 cars

Main St. Auto has more car

Explanation:

First divide the total number of trucks (24) by the number of trucks the mentioned.

Main St.: 24/4= 6 Airport: 24/3=8

Now multiply your answers by the number of cars.

Main St: 9 x 6 =54 Airport: 5 x 8= 40

Main St. Would have 54 cars when they have 24 trucks while Airport will have 40 cars when they have 24 trucks.

Meaning Main st. has more cars.
