The ratio of the price of a loaf of bread to the price of a packet of sugar in 1975 was r : t. In 1980, the price of a loaf went up by 25% and that of a packet of sugar went up by 10%. Their new ratio is now
40r:50t
44r : 50t
50r : 44t
44r:55t
55r:44t
Correct answer is C
Ratio of bread to sugar = r:t
25% increase in bread = 125r100
10% increase in sugar = 100t100
New ratio = 125r100:110t100
= 25r:22t
= 50r:44t
