What is the ratio of the amount spent by the family on medical expenses to the amount spent on groceries?

1:2

13:21

3:5

11:23

✅ Correct Option: 4

Amount spent by family on medical expenses

\rightarrow \dfrac{39.6}{360}\times 45800

Amount spent by family on groceries

\rightarrow \dfrac{82.8}{360}\times 45800

Ratio

\rightarrow \dfrac{\frac{39.6}{360}\times 45800}{\frac{82.8}{360}\times45800} = \dfrac{39.6}{82.8} = \dfrac{11}{23}

\therefore

Option 4 is the correct option.

Note: You can also calculate both the amounts individually, but by using this method, you can save yourself from lengthy calculations as well as save time. From this you can easily see that

82.8
