Answer 2

The required ratio is $\dfrac{320}{299}$ and tota income decrease.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the Railway fare in a certain year increases in the ratio 20:23.

Let the Railway fare in a certain year increases from 20x to 23x.

The number of passengers decrease in the ratio 16:13.

Let the number of passengers decreases from 16y to 13y.

$\text{Total income}=\text{Number of Passengers}\times \text{Railway fare}$

Total income in starting

$\text{Total income}=16y\times 20x=320xy$

Total income after change in fare starting

$\text{Total income}=13y\times 23x=299xy$

Ratio of the total income is

$Ratio=\dfrac{320xy}{299xy}$

$Ratio=\dfrac{320}{299}$

Therefore, the required ratio is $\dfrac{320}{299}$ and tota income decrease.
