What is the ratio of students who speak English and Bhojpuri to those who speak Tamil?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. 5 : 1.
Given that
The total number of students in the hostel is 100.
The number of students who speak English = 0.15 × 100 = 15
The number of students who speak Bhojpuri = 0.1 × 100 = 10
The number of students who speak Tamil = 0.05 × 100 = 5
Hence, the required ratio = (15 + 10) : 5 = 25 : 5 = 5 : 1
