The percentage is the number or ratio which can be expression in the fraction of hundred.
For example, if we have to find out the x% of 50. Then, we have to divide x with 100 and multiplied with 50.
\(x\% \text{ of }50=\dfrac{x}{100}\times50\)
Explanation:-
Total type E car produced in 2019 and 2020,
\(\Rightarrow \dfrac{20}{100}\times 4,50,000+\dfrac{10}{100}\times 5,20,000=142000\)
Now 85% type E card is sold. So, unsold type E cars,
\(\Rightarrow \dfrac{(100-85)}{100}\times 142000=21300\)
So, total 21300 Type-E cars are left unsold by the company.
Hence, the correct option is 4.
