Question: what is the approximate number of vehicles that have been converted to compressed natural gas ( cng )
Evidence:
text_6: the republic way is the key to harnessing the best of what we do as operators and translating that across all facets of our business .
table_4: the total of approximate number of vehicles is 15800 ; the total of approximate average age is 7.5 ;
text_13: fleet conversion to compressed natural gas ( cng ) approximately 18% ( 18 % ) of our fleet operates on natural gas .
Program: multiply(15800, 18%)
