    C 420 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 460 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the number of white taxis be ‘x’ Therefore, number of black taxis = (400 – x) Number of yellow taxis = (400 – x – 80) = (320 – x) According to the question, 320 – x + 400 – x + x = 100 × 3 Or, x = 420
