The correct answer is

235

 To solve this question, we need to calculate the percentage of Model-P cars sold in City D compared to the number of Model-R cars sold in City A. We will follow these steps:

First, calculate the number of cars sold in City A and City D based on the total cars sold and their percentage distribution:

  • Number of cars sold in City A = \(90,000 \times \frac{14.30}{100} = 12,870\)
  • Number of cars sold in City D = \(90,000 \times \frac{16.80}{100} = 15,120\)

Next, calculate the number of each model sold. We need the ratio of models for both cities:

  • Model-R cars in City A follows the ratio 7:7:4. Calculate as follows:
    • Total parts in A = \(7 + 7 + 4 = 18\)
    • Number of Model-R cars in City A = \(12,870 \times \frac{4}{18} = 2860\)
  • Model-P cars in City D follows the ratio 4:3:2. Calculate as follows:
    • Total parts in D = \(4 + 3 + 2 = 9\)
    • Number of Model-P cars in City D = \(15,120 \times \frac{4}{9} = 6720\)

Finally, compute the percentage of Model-P cars sold in City D with respect to the number of Model-R cars sold in City A:

  • Percentage = \(\left(\frac{6720}{2860}\right) \times 100 \approx 235\%\)

Therefore, the number of Model-P cars sold in City D is approximately 235% of the number of Model-R cars sold in City A.
