Read the pie chart on the cars sold  by a showroom in a year and answer the given question If the number of type c cars sold was 500                                     b) What was the number of type  D cars sold?

To answer the question, let's first read the information from the pie chart in the image:

- **Type A:** 35%
- **Type B:** 22%
- **Type C:** 25%
- **Type D:** 18%

Given that the number of Type C cars sold was 500, we can find the total number of cars sold by using the percentage of Type C cars.

### Step 1: Find the total number of cars sold.
Let the total number of cars sold be \( x \).

Since 25% of the total cars are Type C, we can set up the equation:
\[
\text{Type C cars} = \frac{25}{100} \times x = 500
\]

Now, solve for \( x \):
\[
x = \frac{500 \times 100}{25} = 2000
\]

So, the total number of cars sold is 2000.

### Step 2: Find the number of Type D cars sold.
Type D cars represent 18% of the total number of cars sold.

\[
\text{Type D cars} = \frac{18}{100} \times 2000 = 360
\]

Thus, the number of Type D cars sold is 360.
