Answer:
1. To find the rate of sales, divide the change in the number of cars left by the amount of time.
Car Mart sold [tex]\frac{43-10 cars}{5-2 days} =\frac{33 cars}{3 days} = 11[/tex] cars per day
2. After 3 days, Winston has 32 cars left and after 5 days it has 12 cars left. By subtracting 32 by 12 you get 20. Then by subtracting 5 by 3 you get 2. Finally, by dividing 20 by 2 and you get 10.
3. Cart Mart sells more cars. Cart Mart sells 11 cars each day and Winston sells only 10 each day. So, 11 - 10 = 1.
4. Cart Mart started with 3 more cars than Winston's did.
Car Mart had 43 cars left after 2 days, and they sell 11 cars per day. They sold 11 x 2 = 22 cars during the first 2 days. So Car Mart started with 43 + 22 = 65 cars.
Winston's had 32 cars left after 3 days, and they sell 10 cars per day. They sold 10 x 3 = 30 cars during the first 3 days. So Winston's started with 332 + 30 = 62 cars.
Car Mart started with 65 - 62 = 3 more cars.
