Answer:

117 cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi Yirod!

To begin, we need to find out what 52 ÷ 4 is. That's because there are 4 trucks in the ratio, but a total of 52 trucks.

52 ÷ 4 = 13

So we're multiplying everything by 13.

9 × 13 = 117

So there are [tex]$\boxed{117}$[/tex] cars.

Check:

Since we have 52:117, it should simplify to 9:4

52:117 (divide both by 13)

9 : 4. Thus, we are correct!
