Question

If 20% of first number is equal to four-fifths of second number, what is the ratio of first number to the second number?

A.

1 : 6

B.

4 : 1

C.

6 : 2

D.

7 : 4

Correct option is B

Given:

20% of first number = 45\frac{4}{5}​ of second number

Find ratio: First Number : Second Number

Solution:

20% of A = 45\frac45​ of B 

15A=45B\frac{1}{5}A = \frac{4}{5}B​​

A = 4B

So,

A : B = 4 : 1
