Question

Two numbers are respectively 20% and 50% more than a third number. The ratio of the two numbers is: select one: a. 6:5 b. 4 :5 c. 3 :5 d. 2 :5

Answer 1

Answer:

option d =>2:5

Step-by-step explanation:

let third no. be y

ATQ

second no. is 20×y/100

and

third no. is 50×y/100

$\frac{second}{third} = \frac{20 \times y \div 100}{50 \times y \div 100} = \frac{20}{50} = \frac{2}{5}$

hence ratio is 2:5
