Question

Let Q = ( x / y ) where x and y are real numbers. if both x and y are increased equally then

• A. Q will increase
• B. Q will decrease
• C. Q will remain the same
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is D None of the above

$Q=\left(x/y\right)$

if x,y are increased by same amount $k$, then

$Q=\left(\frac{x+k}{y+k}\right)$, now we cant comment on $Q$ until and unless we know $x,y,k$ values

the new value of Q may increase or decrease or can be equal.
