Vehicles Count
1. **State the problem:** There are 25 motorcycles, scooters, and cars in total, and together they have 68 wheels. We need to find how many cars there are.
2. **Define variables:** Let $m$ be the number of motorcycles and scooters combined (since both have 2 wheels each) and $c$ be the number of cars.
3. **Set up equations:**
- Total vehicles: $$m + c = 25$$
- Total wheels: motorcycles and scooters have 2 wheels each, cars have 4 wheels, so:
$$2m + 4c = 68$$
4. **Solve the system:**
From the first equation:
$$m = 25 - c$$
Substitute into the second equation:
$$2(25 - c) + 4c = 68$$
$$50 - 2c + 4c = 68$$
$$50 + 2c = 68$$
Subtract 50:
$$2c = 18$$
Divide both sides by 2:
$$c = 9$$
5. **Final answer:** There are **9 cars** in the car park.
