Let’s solve this step by step.
We are told:
- There are 4 cars (shown as small car icons at the top).
- Each car has a motor and can carry passengers.
- The label “Passengers enclosed” is next to one of the cars — but since all cars look the same, we assume
each car can carry the same number of passengers.
- At the bottom, there’s a diagram with 5 rectangles connected by lines — this likely represents seats or passenger spots in one car. Let’s count them: yes, there are 5 boxes → so
each car holds 5 passengers.
Now, if each car holds 5 passengers, and there are 4 cars:
Total passengers = 4 cars × 5 passengers per car
= 20 passengers
But wait — let’s double-check. Is the “Motor” label meaning something? Probably not — it’s just labeling parts of the car. The key info is: 4 cars, each with 5 passenger spots.
Also, note: the problem doesn’t say any car is empty or broken — so we assume all are working and full.
So:
4 × 5 = 20
Final Answer:
20
