Question

A total of 625 cars are parked in 25 rows outside a railway station. Calculate the number of cars that can be accommodated in 1 row?

• A. 24
• B. 25
• C. 26
• D. 27

Answer 1

The correct option is B 25

Total number of cars $=625$
Number of rows $=25$
Let the number of car that can be accomadated in 1 row be $x$.

$\therefore$ The number of car that can be accomadated in 1 row $\times$ Number of rows = Total number of cars
$\Rightarrow x\times 25=625$
Divide both side by 25.
$\Rightarrow \frac{25x}{25}=\frac{625}{25}$
$\Rightarrow x=25$

Hence, the number of cars that can be accomadated in 1 row is 25.
