Question

The ratio of number of students in schools A and B is 5 : 8. If the number of students in schools A and B is increased by 20% and 15%, respectively, find the new ratio of students in schools A and B, respectively.

A.

15 : 23

B.

15 : 13

C.

13 : 15

D.

12 : 13

Correct option is A

Let the number of student in school A and B = 50 and 80 respectively.

when 20% of students is increased in school A, total students = 20% of 50+ 50 = 60

when 15% of students is increased in school B, total students = 15% of 80+ 80 = 92 

Required Ratio = 15: 23
