An automobile dealership has found that for every 110 cars​ sold, 15 will be brought back to the dealer for major repairs. If the dealership sells 770 cars this​ year, approximately how many cars will be brought back for major​ repairs?

1 answer

To calculate the number of cars that will be brought back for major repairs, we first need to find the number of sets of 110 cars in 770 cars:

770 cars / 110 cars/set = 7 sets

Then, we multiply the number of sets by the number of cars brought back for major repairs in each set:

7 sets * 15 cars/set = 105 cars

Therefore, approximately 105 cars will be brought back for major repairs.
