Direction: Read the following data carefully and answer the following questions:
There are two villages A and B in a certain district. The population of village A is 35% less than the population of village B. Total population of both villages is 8250. The ratio between adults and children in two villages is 20: 13. The difference between the number of adults and children including two villages is 1750. In village A, the number of adults is 60% more than the number of children. While in village B, the number of adults is 1.5 times the number of children.
What is the ratio between the number of children of village A and Village B?
3 : 5
5 : 8
5 : 3
4 : 7
7 : 8
Let's break down the information step by step:
- Let the population of village B be x. Then, A = x - 35% of x = 0.65x.
- Total population: A + B = 0.65x + x = 1.65x = 8250.
? x = 8250 / 1.65 = 5000. ? B = 5000, A = 3250.
- Adults : Children = 20 : 13 (Total population 8250)
- So, Adults = (20/33)*8250 = 5000, Children = (13/33)*8250 = 3250.
- Difference between adults and children = 1750 (Given, matches 5000 – 3250).
- In village A: Adults = 60% more than children.
- Let children in A = y, adults = y + 0.6y = 1.6y; so y + 1.6y = 2.6y = 3250 ? y = 1250 (children), adults = 2000.
- In village B: Let children = z, adults = 1.5z; z + 1.5z = 2.5z = 5000 ? z = 2000 (children), adults = 3000.
- Ratio of children in A to B = 1250 : 2000 = 5 : 8.
Thus, the correct option is:
- Option 2: 5 : 8
Explanation of Options:
- 3 : 5, 5 : 3, 4 : 7, 7 : 8 are all not matching calculated ratio (5 : 8).
- Only option 2 (5 : 8) is correct and matches the calculation.
