Ratio and Proportion 17/11/2020

A. 9:19
B. 19:9
C. 15:28
D. 28:15

Let A1 be the area of flat and A2 be that of the commercial space
Total cost = area * rate
Therefore, cost of flat = A1*4500 ; cost of commercial space = A2*9500
Both the above costs are same
A1*4500 = A2*9500
A1:A2 = 9500:4500 = 19:9
