(E) 112 112
Answer
Correct choice: (D)
正确答案:(D)
Solution
Answer (D): Let $s=$ number of sedans. Set up a proportion: $\frac{4}{7}=\frac{28}{s}=\frac{4(7)}{7(7)}=\frac{28}{49}$. So the dealership expects to sell 49 sedans.
答案(D):设 $s=$ 轿车的数量。列比例:$\frac{4}{7}=\frac{28}{s}=\frac{4(7)}{7(7)}=\frac{28}{49}$。因此,该经销商预计会卖出 49 辆轿车。
