Q1. Two numbers are respectively 20% and 50% more than a third number. The ratio of the two numbers is ?

2 : 5

4 : 5

5 : 7

5 : 3

Accepted Answer

Answer : 4 : 5

Let the third number be x.
Then, first number = 120% of x = 120x/100 = 6x/5
Second number = 150% of x = 150x/100 = 3x/2

∴Ratio of first two numbers = 6x/5 : 3x/2 = 12x : 15x = 4 : 5.
