d) There are 70 cars parked in a garage. Three-fifths of the cars were small cars and the rest

were big cars. How many big cars are there in the garage?

1 answer

To find the number of big cars in the garage, we first need to find the number of small cars.
Three-fifths of the cars are small cars, so we have (3/5) * 70 = 42 small cars.

To find the number of big cars, we subtract the number of small cars from the total number of cars:
70 - 42 = 28 big cars.

Therefore, there are 28 big cars in the garage.
