If the number of cars will be 48. Then the number of cars that run on petrol will be 30.

What are ratio and proportion?

A ratio is an ordered set of integers a and b expressed as a/b, with b never equaling 0. A percentage is a mathematical expression in which two things are equal.

160 cars and vans, in the ratio of 3:7.

Let x be the number of cars and y be the number of vans. Then we have

x + y = 160

and

x/y = 3/7

(x + y)/y = 10/7

160/y = 10/7

y = 112

Then the value of x will be

x + 112 = 160

        x = 48

Then 25% of cars are electric and 1/8 of cars are diesel. Then the number of the cars that run on petrol will be

Let z be the number of petrol cars.

z + 0.25 (48) + 48/8 = 48

               z + 12 + 6 = 48

                             z = 30
