Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e 17 : 13

Understanding Application
Let the total expenditure be 'x'.

Total expenditure on Infrastructure = 0.25x 

Total expenditure on transport = 0.175x

Total expenditure on taxes = 0.1x

Total expenditure on Interest on Loan = 0.225x

Hence, Ratio = (0.250x + 0.175x) / (0.100x + 0.225x) =0.425/0.325 = (17 / 13)
