Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Using the concept of proportion verify whether the statement is true or false:

$40$ persons$:200$ persons $=₹15:₹75$

Taking the ratio we get

$\Rightarrow$$\frac{40}{200}=\frac{1}{5}$

$\Rightarrow$ $\frac{15}{75}=\frac{1}{5}$

$\Rightarrow$ $\frac{1}{5}=\frac{1}{5}$

$\Rightarrow$$40$ persons$:200$ persons $=₹15:₹75$

Hence, the given statement is true.
