Find the ratio of tourists from the country coming in during March and April.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. 9 : 10.
The Ratio of tourists in countries A and B in March = 3 : 2
Percentage of tourists visiting in March = 20%
Total number of tourists = 60000
Total number of Tourists visit in March = 20% of 60000 = 12000
Total number of tourists visiting from company A in March = 3x/5x × 12000 = 3/5 × 12000 = 7200
Now, the Ratio of tourists in countries A and B in April = 8 : 7
Percentage of tourists visiting in April = 25%
Total number of tourists = 60000
Total number of Tourists visit in April = 25% of 60000 = 15000
Total number of tourists visiting from company A in April = 8x/15x × 15000 = 8 × 1000 = 8000
Hence, Required ratio = 7200 : 8000 = 72 : 80 = 9 : 10
