Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 3 : 4.
Number of people who earn less than 200 = 12
Number of people who earns less that 350 and more than 300 = 40 - 34 = 6
Number of people who earns less than 400 and more than 350 = 50 - 40 = 10
Number of people who earns more than 300 = 10 + 6 = 16
Required ratio = 12 : 16 = 3 : 4.
