Question

In a zoo, 45 birds out of 150 are migratory. $\frac{3}{5}$ of the total birds are of the Indian origin. Which kind of birds are greater in number in the zoo?

• A. Migratory birds
• B. Indian birds
• C. Both are same in number
• D. Data Insufficient

Answer 1

The correct option is B

Indian birds

Fraction of migratory birds $=\frac{45}{150}=\frac{3}{10}$

Fraction of birds of Indian origin
$=\frac{3}{5}=\frac{6}{10}$ ...(equivalent fractions)

And, we know, $\frac{6}{10}>\frac{3}{10}.$

$\therefore$ The Indian origin birds are greater in number in the zoo.
