of the cars are gray and electrically powered.

Answer 1

To find the fraction of the cars on the lot that are both gray and electrically powered, you can use the following steps:

1. Identify the total number of cars on the lot.
2. Identify the number of gray cars that are electrically powered.
3. Divide the number of gray and electrically powered cars by the total number of cars.

From the information given:

• Number of gray cars = 25
• Number of gray, electrically powered cars = 13

To find the fraction, you need to know the total number of cars on the lot. Since the total number of cars isn't specified in the problem, let's denote it as \( T \).

The fraction of cars that are both gray and electrically powered is given by:

\[ \text{Fraction} = \frac{\text{Number of gray and electrically powered cars}}{\text{Total number of cars}} = \frac{13}{T} \]

Without the total number of cars \( T \), we cannot provide a numerical answer. If you have the total number of cars on the lot, please provide that information, and I can help you compute the fraction.
