Step-by-step explanation:

cars : trucks = 3 : 5

there are 3 + 5 = 8 parts of the whole that is shared between cars and trucks.

these 8 parts (or the whole) are in total 360.

therefore, 1 part = 360/8 = 45

cars get 3 parts of the whole parking lot, that is

45 × 3 = 135 cars

trucks get 5 parts of the whole parking lot, that is

45 × 5 = 225 trucks
