If 85% of the S type cars produced in each year were sold by the company, how many S type cars remain unsold?

A.

7,650

B.

9,350

C.

11,850

D.

12,250

Correct answer is C

Number of S type cars which remained unsold in 2000 = 15% of 35,000

and number of S type cars which remained unsold in 2001 = 15% of 44,000.

Therefore Total number of S type cars which remained unsold

    = 15% of (35,000 + 44,000)

    = 15% of 79,000

    = 11,850.
