Two numbers are 8% and 28% respectively, more than a third number. What is the ratio between the two numbers?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 27 : 32.
Calculations:
Let the three numbers be a, b and c
Take c = 100
a is 8% more than c and b is 28% more than c
⇒ a : b = 108 : 128
⇒ 27 : 32
