Using proportions, it is found that 38 spaces are suitable for non-compact cars.
What is a proportion?
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct(when both increase or both decrease) or inverse proportional(when one increases and the other decreases, or vice versa), can be built to find the desired measures in the problem, or equations to find these measures.
For this problem, we have that:
- 94% of the spaces are not reserved for handicapped parking, hence this number is of 0.94 x 200 = 188.
- Of those, 20% are suitable for compact cars, hence 0.2 x 188 = 38.
38 spaces are suitable for non-compact cars.
