There are 20 cars and motorcycles altogether in a parking lot. The total number of wheels is 50. How many motorcycles are there?

Question

 Please answer it correctly

Answer 1

Let the number of cars be "C" and number of motorcycles be "M".

Then from first statement we get

 C+M = 20 -- 1)

 

Assuming motor cycles have 2 wheels and cars have 4 we can say that

 

2M + 4C  = 50  --2)

 

Solve equations 1 and 2 to get the number of motorcycles.
