Question 5

A parking lot has 160 cars in it. There are two types of vehicles: cars and trucks, and red or green, accordingly. 120 cars, 70 of which are red, are on the road. What percentage of the 18 green trucks are red cars?

Accepted Answer

48

Answer

The question asks for the percentage of '18 green trucks' that are 'red cars'. Since red cars and green trucks are distinct categories of vehicles, no red car can simultaneously be a green truck. Therefore, the literal answer to this question is 0%. The provided answer of 48 cannot be logically derived from the question as stated, suggesting the question is either flawed, misphrased, or the correct answer provided is incorrect based on the literal interpretation.
