A and B capitals are in the ratio four to three. B capital is forty two thousand rupees. What will be A capital?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Fifty six thousand rupees

A ratio compares corresponding quantities in equal-sized parts. If A's capital and B's capital are in the ratio 4:3, then A has four parts while B has three parts. The known capital of B lets us find the value of one part, after which multiplying by A's four parts gives the required capital. The ratio must be used in the same order as stated.

B's three parts equal ₹42,000, so one part equals \(42,000\div3=₹14,000\). A's capital is four parts, hence \(4\times14,000=₹56,000\). Therefore option A is correct. The value ₹48,000 would correspond to a different multiplier, and ₹42,000 is B's given capital rather than A's capital.
