    2q)
    A 28:27 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 24:25 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 18:23 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 17:20 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let the values of ‘p’ and ‘q’ be ‘5k’ and ‘6k’ respectively.

    So, required ratio = {(2 × 5k) + (3 × 6k)} : {(3 × 5k) + (2 × 6k)}

    = {10k + 18k} : {15k + 12k}

    = 28k : 27k

    = 28 : 27
