Correct answer: B
To determine which city had the maximum number of registered cars per person in 2020, divide the number of registered cars by the population (in persons) for each city. City A: 9500 / 800,000 = 0.0119. City B: 1500 / 200,000 = 0.0075. City C: 10000 / 600,000 ≈ 0.0167. City D: 7400 / 750,000 ≈ 0.0099. City C has the highest ratio.
