Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 103 : 8.

The total number of people who take tea more than 3 times a day = 1732 + 1842 + 6045 + 2741 = 12360

The total number of people who do not take tea at all = 317 + 127 + 223 + 293 = 960

Required ratio = 12360 : 960 = 103 : 8

Therefore, the ratio of the total number of people surveyed who take tea more than 3 times a day to the number of people who do not take tea at all is 103 : 8.
