Answer:

At the same rate 9 cars can move through the car wash in 24 minutes

Explanation:

No. of cars washed in 8 minutes = 3

No. of cars washed in 1 minute =
(3)/(8)

So, rate is 3/8 cars per minute

No. of cars washed in 24 minutes =
(3)/(8) * 24

=
9

So, No. of cars washed in 24 minutes is 9

Hence At the same rate 9 cars can move through the car wash in 24 minutes
