Accepted Answer

Option C. 29 : 45. Answer & Solution Answer: Option C Solution: & In 2010, 50 = 2-E_1/E_1×100 & 50\,E_1= 200-100\,E_1 & 150\,E_1 = 200 & E_1 = 4/3 & In 2011, 45 = 3-E_2/E_2×100 & 45\,E_2 = 300 - 100\,E_2 & 145\,E_2=300 & E_2= 300/145 & Then, E_1/E_2 = 4/3×145/300 & E_1/E_2 = 29/45 & E_1:E_2=29:45
