a) 125\;:\;122
b) 125\;:\;112
c) 115\;:\;112
d) 150\;:\;112
correct answer is: b) 125\;:\;112
Explanation
According to the question,
8 days ram earns ₹ 125
\therefore 1 day ram earns ₹ \large\frac{125}{8}
And,
10 days Shyam earns ₹ 140
\therefore 1 day Shyam earns ₹ \large\frac{140}{10}
So that,
The ratio of their earning =\large\frac{125}{8}∶\frac{140}{10}
\rightarrow\large\frac{125}{8}\times\frac{10}{140}
\rightarrow\large\frac{125}{112}
\rightarrow 125\;:\;112
Ans: The ratio of their earning is 125\;:\;112.
Another form of this specific math question exists:
- Ram earns ₹ 125 in 8 days while Shyam earns ₹ 140 in 10 days. Determine the ratio of their earnings.
- If Ram’s earnings amount to ₹ 125 over 8 days, and Shyam earns ₹ 140 over 10 days, what is the ratio of their earnings?
- In a span of 8 days, Ram makes ₹ 125, and Shyam accumulates ₹ 140 in 10 days. Calculate the ratio of their earnings.
