If 3/5 of x is equal to 4/9 of y, then what is the ratio of x and y?

 

Given ratio of number of sheep and horses = 4 : 15
Let number of sheep and horses are 4k and 15k
Number of horses = 13200/110 = 120
Now 15K = 120 and k = 8
Number of sheep = 4k = (4 x 8) = 32

Given the salaries are in the ratio of 4 : 5 : 6

Now the salaries are increased by 50%, 60% and 50% respectively

The New ratio of salaries will be

4 x (150/100) : 5 x (160/100) : 6 x (150/100)

= 6 : 8 : 9

The new ratio of salaries of Akhil, Arun and Karthik is 9 : 8 : 6

Given (2a + 3b)/(5a - 3b) = 23/5
=> 10a + 15b = 115a - 69b
=> 105a = 84b => 5a = 4b
a/b = 4/5 => a=4 & b=5
=> bxa = 5x4 = 20.

The ratio of distribution should be:
21 x 15 : 15 x 35 : 35 x 21
= 315 : 525 : 735
= 3 : 5 : 7
The smallest share will be of worth:
3/15 x 52,500 = Rs. 10,500

Given,
The ratio of the doctors to the nurses is 11 : 8
Number of nurses = 8/19 x 209 = 88.

Given, y/(x - z) = (y + x)/z = x/y
yz = xy + x2 - yz - xz ....(1)
Also xy = yx-z ⇒x2 -xz = y2 ....(2)
Using (1) and (2), we get yz = xy - yz + y2
2yz = xy + y2
2z = x + y
Only option (B) satisfies the equation.

Given total applicants = 135
Given graduates are G=60
Otherthan graduates=135-60 = 75
Given experienced candidates = 80
1) For maximum number of graduates have experience
    Total graduates to have experience = 60

2) For minimum number of graduates have experience
    Remaining after taking other than graduates in experience= 80-75 = 5

12 men120 acres36 days54 men?54 days

 As 12 men can reap 120 acres, 54 men will be able to reap more acres in 36 days, 120 acres of land was reaped, so in 54 days, more land will be reaped.

Thus, the numbers of acres that can be reaped by 54 men in 54 days = 5412x120x5436 = 810 acres
