Let's solve the pictograph problem step by step.

Understanding the Pictograph
The key tells us:
Each car icon (🚗) represents 6 cars.
We need to count the number of car icons for each day and multiply by 6 to find the actual number of cars repaired.
---
Step 1: Count the cars for each day
| Day | Number of car icons | Cars repaired (×6) |
|-----------|---------------------|--------------------|
| Monday | 3 | 3 × 6 = 18 |
| Tuesday | 5 | 5 × 6 = 30 |
| Wednesday | 2 | 2 × 6 = 12 |
| Thursday | 7 | 7 × 6 = 42 |
| Friday | 4 | 4 × 6 = 24 |
| Saturday | 4 | 4 × 6 = 24 |
| Sunday | 0 | 0 × 6 = 0 |
