Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option A

3:4

Solution :

The correct option is 3:4.

To find the ratio between S and T, we start with the information given in the question:
S is 75% of T.

We can write this relation as a mathematical equation:
S=75%×T

Convert the percentage to a fraction:
S=75100×T

Simplify the fraction 75100 by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 25:
S=34×T

To find the ratio of S to T (which is ST), divide both sides of the equation by T:
ST=34

Therefore, the ratio of S to T is 3:4.
