Question


If the ratio of marks obtained by Ankit in the internals of all three subjects (Economics, Finance and Accounts) in that order is 9:3: 4, then what was the ratio of marks scored by Sachin in the externals of those three subjects in the same order?


Options:
A .   18 : 10 : 5
B .   3 : 1 : 2
C .   17 : 51 : 67
D .   24 : 45 : 30
Answer: Option D
:
D
Let the total marks scored by the six students in Economics, Finance and Accounts be x, y and z respectively.
The ratio of marks scored by Ankit in the Internals of these papers would be:
(30% of 10% of x) : (10% of 5% of y) : (10% of 10% of z) which would be the same as (0.03x):
(0.005y) : (0.01z) = (3x) : (0.5y) : (z)
But, (3x) : (0.5y) : (z) is equal to 9 : 3 : 4.
3x = 9, 0.5y = 3 and z = 4
The ratio x : y : z would be equal to 3 : 6 : 4.
The marks scored by Sachin are 30%, 25%, and 25%, the ratio of marks would be 90 : 150 : 100,
i.e. 9 : 15 : 10.
Now, the marks scored by Sachin in Internals are 20%, 10% and 10%.
Marks scored by him in Externals will be 80%, 90% and 90%.
The required ratio would be (80% of 9) : (90% of 15) : (90% of 10), i.e. (7.2) : (13.5) : (9)
This ratio would be equal to 72 : 135 : 90 or 24 : 45 : 30
