Answer:

Let's break down the information provided:

Spyro has 12 out of 68 cars in the driveway, which can be represented as 12/68.

Lucy has 13 out of 50 cars, represented as 13/50.

Lucy gives Jack 11 out of 20 cars, represented as 11/20.

To determine how many cars Jack has, we need to calculate the sum of the cars Lucy had before giving some to Jack. So Lucy initially had 13/50 cars and gave away 11/20. We can find the remaining cars by subtracting 11/20 from 13/50:

13/50 - 11/20

To subtract fractions, we need a common denominator. The least common multiple of 50 and 20 is 100.

(13/50) * (2/2) = 26/100

(11/20) * (5/5) = 55/100

Now we can subtract:

26/100 - 55/100 = (26 - 55)/100 = -29/100

Lucy gave away more cars than she had, which means she had a negative number of cars remaining. This doesn't make sense in this context, so there may be an error or inconsistency in the information provided.

As a result, we can't accurately determine how many cars Jack and Lucy have based on the given information.
