The correct answer is

34

 To find how much more the number of cars sold in City F is compared to the number of cars sold in City B, we first need to use the given percentage distribution.

  1. Calculate the number of cars sold in City B using the percentage distribution:
    • City B's percentage of cars sold = \(16.20\%\)
    • Total cars sold = \(90,000\)
    • Cars sold in City B = \(\frac{16.20}{100} \times 90,000 = 14,580\)
  2. Calculate the number of cars sold in City F using the percentage distribution:
    • City F's percentage of cars sold = \(21.70\%\)
    • Cars sold in City F = \(\frac{21.70}{100} \times 90,000 = 19,530\)
  3. Find the difference in number of cars sold between the two cities:
    • Difference = Cars in City F - Cars in City B = \(19,530 - 14,580 = 4,950\)
  4. Calculate the percentage increase:
    • Percentage increase = \(\frac{4,950}{14,580} \times 100 \approx 33.94\%\)

The percentage increase in the number of cars sold in City F compared to City B is approximately 34%.

Therefore, the correct answer is 34%.
