Question

Anuar has a collection of 80 toy vehicles. 3/5 of his toy vehicles are cars. The rest are motorcycles and buses. The number of motorcycles is 3 times the number of buses. How many toy motorcycles does Anuar have?

​

Answer 1

36 motorcycles

Explanation:

calculate
`(3)/(5)` of 80

=
`(3)/(5)` × 80 ( cancel 5 and 80 by 5 )

= 3 × 16 = 48

there are 48 motorcycles and buses

let x be the number of buses then 3x is the number of motorcycles , then

x + 3x = 48

4x = 48 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 12

number of motorcycles = 3x = 3 × 12 = 36

Answer 2

He has 24 motorcycles
