If a total of 17 zeroes. Now we define the used cars as U (with a price of 7 each) and the new

E. 10
F. None of these Solving Tip: You could try solving this question by elimination. For starters, since
191 is an odd number and 16 is an even number, then the number of used cars
must be odd (even+odd=odd) - which means we can eliminate answers A, D & E.

Now that we are left only with B and C, let's try to calculate it for each of these
options:
*. 3*7 + 16*(17-3) = 245, which means we can eliminate B as an answer.
*. 5*7 + 16*(17-5) = 227, which means we can eliminate C as an answer.
Therefore, the only possible answer is F - none of the above.
