Question : The ratio of the first and second sums of money is 7 : 8. If the first sum is 35, the second sum is:
Option 1: 56
Option 2: 40
Option 3: 45
Option 4: 44
Correct Answer: 40
Solution :
Let the second sum value be $x$.
$7 : 8 :: 35 : x$
⇒ $\frac{7}{8}=\frac{35}{x}$
⇒ $7x = 35 \times 8$
$\therefore x = 40$
Hence, the correct answer is 40.
