Question

    Two numbers ‘A’ and ‘B’ are in the ratio 3:4

    respectively. If ‘A’ is increased by 33(1/3)% and ‘B’ is increased by 25%, what will be the new ratio of ‘A’ and ‘B’?
    A 4:5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 2:5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 1:3 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 5:2 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let 'A' = 3k and 'B' = 4k

    New value of A = (4/3) × 3k = 4k

    New value of B = (5/4) × 4k = 5k

    Required ratio = 4k : 5k = 4 : 5
