• A. $5:1$
• B. $1:20$
• C. $1:5$
• D. $20:1$

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

$1:20$

$\Rightarrow$ Cost of toffee = 50 paise.

$\Rightarrow$ Cost of chocolate = Rs.10 = 1000 paise [ Rs.1=100 paise ]

$\Rightarrow$ $\frac{Costofatoffee}{Costofachocolate}=\frac{50}{100}=\frac{1}{20}$

$\therefore$ The required ration is $1:20$
