Mr. gold had 4 times more cars than motorcycles in his garage. after he bought 4 more cars and sold 4 motorcycles, there were 8 times more cars than motorcycles. how many cars and motorcycles were there in garage?

There are 40 cars and 5 motorcycles at the end of buying and selling. He started with 9 motorcycles and 36 cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

x=# of motorcycles         4x=# of cars

8(x-4)=4x+4

8x-32=4x+4

4x=36

x=9

---

4(9)+4=36+4=40

9-4=5

the answer would be 1 1/72
