Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
- Let total number of cars be x, And total number of scooters be y.
$ \therefore $ Total number of wheels $ =x\times 4+2\times y $ $ =4x+2y $ Total number of vehicle parked $ =x+y $ Now, $ 4x+2y=2,(x+y)+100 $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ 4x+2y=2x+2y+100 $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ 2x=100 $
$ \therefore $ $ x=50 $
