Explanation:

Lets assume the price of B as 100x,
so the price of A becomes 150% of 100x = 150x
As per the question there is an increase of 10% in price of A and 25% in price of B
Therefore the price of A becomes 110% of 150x = 165x
and the price of B becomes 125% of 100x = 125x
Now we can see that A is 40x more than B.
This can be expressed in percentage as
40x /125x * 100 = 32%
