A’s and B’s salaries are respectively 40% and 70% rupees more than C’s salary. What is the ratio of B’s salary to A’s salary?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 17 : 14.
A’s salary = 40% more than C, B’s salary = 70% more than C
Let C = 100
A = 100 + 40 = 140
B = 100 + 70 = 170
Ratio B : A = 170 : 140 = 17 : 14
