3 models ( f , g , and h ) of cars are distributed among 3 showrooms . the number of cars in each showrooms must be equal and each model must be represented by at least one car in every showroom . there are 19 cars of model f , 17 cars of model g , and 15 cars of model h . what is the maximum number of cars of model f in any showroom ?  Select the correct option.
A) 17 B) 16 C) 15 D) 14 E) 13

Rationale: the total number of cars is 51 . so each showroom has 17 cars ( since the number of cars in each showrooms should be equal 51 / 3 = 17 ) . moreover that the number of model f is maximum means that the numbers of model g and h should be minimum . since each model must be represented by at least one car in every showroom that minimum number should be 1 . so maximum number of model f is 17 - 2 = 15 . the answer is ( c )
Answer: C
