This statement is unclear.

Explanation:

Does she have 6 left -after- the motorcycles AND cars have decals? If so, there is no answer for this question. We can tell that there are 9 remaining after decals are put on the cars, but not how many there were to begin with.

IF there are 6 leftover before we put decals on the car, we can tell that she used 2 on each motorcycle.

Neither of these pieces of information give us how many we had orginally nor how many were used on each car.
