Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 8 : 9

Calculation:

Let the third number be 100

First number = 100 + 20% of 100

⇒ 100 + 20

⇒ 120

Similarly,

Second number = 100 + 35% of 100

⇒ 100 + 35

⇒ 135

Now,

Required ratio = 120 ∶ 135

⇒ 8 ∶ 9

The ratio between first and second number will be 8 9
