    Step-by-step explanation:

    First, find the total number of vehicles sold.

    15 SUVs were sold, and 80 others were sold

    15+80

    95

    So, 95 vehicles were sold in total.

    Now we can make a proportion

    15 out of 95 vehicles were SUVs, and we can expect x out of 76 vehicles to be SUVs

    15/95=x/76

    Cross multiply

    95*x=15*76

    95x=1140

    To solve for x, we need to get x by itself. Since x is being multiplied by 95, divide both sides by 95. This will cancel out the 95, and leave x isolated.

    95x/95=1140/95

    x=12

    So, 12 out 76 vehicles should be SUVs
