Concept used:
Rules of Addition/ Subtraction:
Two numbers with similar sign always get added and the resulting number will carry the similar sign.
Two numbers with opposite signs always get subtracted and the resulting number will carry the sign of larger number.
Rules of Multiplication/ Division:
The product/quotient of two similar sign numbers is always positive.
The product/quotient of two numbers with opposite signs is always negative.
Calculation:
In order to find the length of cars we use the unitary method with the given scale and simplify further as shown below,
1 inch =72 feet
So,
134 inch =72×134 feet.
=918 feet
=1138 feet
Thus, the actual length of car 1138 feet and option C is correct.
