Question 70

The ratio of occupied seats to the vacant seats in a bus is 1:4 By the time the bus started some more passengers tried to enter the bus which would have made the ratio 4:1 But as they failed in the attempt they were seated in an empty bus with same capacity as the previous one.What is the ratio of occupied seats to the vacant seats in this bus ?

Let there be 100 seats in each bus. Initial ratio = 1:4

So, the initial people seated = 20

New ratio = 4:1

So, new people = 60

In the new bus, the ratio = 60 : 40 = 3:2
