To determine the total number of wheels in the parking lot, we need to count the number of wheels on each type of vehicle and then add them together.
First, let's consider the bikes. Bikes typically have two wheels each. According to the information provided, there were 7 bikes in the parking lot. So, the number of wheels from the bikes would be 7 multiplied by 2, which equals 14 wheels.
Next, we have the unicycle. Unlike bikes, a unicycle only has one wheel. So, the number of wheels from the unicycle is 1.
Finally, we have the cars. Cars usually have four wheels each. According to the information provided, there were 5 cars in the parking lot. So, the number of wheels from the cars would be 5 multiplied by 4, which equals 20 wheels.
To find the total number of wheels in the parking lot, we add up the number of wheels from each type of vehicle: 14 (from the bikes) + 1 (from the unicycle) + 20 (from the cars) = 35 wheels in total.
Therefore, there were a total of 35 wheels in the parking lot.
