Answer 2

The total number of vehicles is: x = 120

Hence, option C is correct.

Explanation:

Total trucks that were sold in one month = 72 trucks

Let 'x' be the total number of vehicles.

Given that 60% of the total vehicles sold were trucks.

Thus,

60% of x = 72

60/100 × x = 72

x = [72 × 100] / [60]

x = 120

Therefore, the total number of vehicles is: x = 120

Hence, option C is correct.
