Explanation
VEHICLES Jan Feb Mar
CAR 10 40 5
LORRY 15 25 35
BUS 20 30 50
TOTAL 45 95 90

(a) Vehicles produced in February = 40 + 25 + 30 = 95

(b) Fraction of the vehicles in February that were cars = \(\frac{40}{95} = \frac{8}{19}\)

(c) Total number of buses from January to March = 20 + 30 + 50 = 100

(d) Ratio of lorries in February to that in March = \(25 : 35 \equiv 5 : 7\).
