60mnx5h=300mn
Then time 300×14÷35=120

Answer:


120\ cars

Explanation:

we know that

The ace motor co. can assemble
14 cars in
35 minutes

so

by proportion

Find how many cars can they assemble in
5 hours

First convert
5 hours to minutes


5*60=300\ minutes


(14)/(35)(cars)/(minutes) =(x)/(300)(cars)/(minutes)\\ \\x=300*14/35\\ \\x=120\ cars
