A stall sells popcorn and chips in packets of three sizes: large, super, and jumbo. The numbers of large, super, and jumbo packets in its stock are in the ratio 7 : 17 : 16 for popcorn and 6 : 15 : 14 for chips. If the total number of popcorn packets in its stock is the same as that of chips packets, then the numbers of jumbo popcorn packets and jumbo chips packets are in the ratio:
Explanation:
Total number of popcorn packets in stock = total number of chips packets = T
Popcorn: Large : Super : Jumbo = 7 : 17 : 16 ⇒ Jumbo popcorn packets = 1640T
Chips: Large : Super : Jumbo = 6 : 15 : 14 ⇒ Jumbo popcorn packets = 1435T
∴ Required ratio = 1640T : 1435T = 1 : 1.
Hence, option (a).
