Solution :

Given:

  • Total cars manufactured = 2400
  • Total petrol cars manufactured = 1500

Step 1: Find diesel cars manufactured by Companies A and C

Company A:
Total cars = 15% of 2400 = 360
Petrol cars = 20% of 1500 = 300
Diesel cars = 360 − 300 = 60

Company C:
Total cars = 10% of 2400 = 240
Petrol cars = 12% of 1500 = 180
Diesel cars = 240 − 180 = 60

Total diesel cars manufactured by A and C together = 60 + 60 = 120

Step 2: Find the total cars manufactured by Company F

Company F = 17.5% of 2400 = 420

Step 3: Find the required ratio

Required Ratio = 120 : 420

= 2 : 7

Answer: 2 : 7
