Tom is chasing Jerry. In the same interval of time Tom jumps 8 times while Jerry jumps 6 times. But the distance covered by Tom in 7 jumps is equal to the distance covered by Jerry in 5 jumps. The ratio of speed of Tom and Jerry is
-
- 48 : 35
- 28 : 15
- 24 : 20
- 20 : 21
Correct Option: D
7 jumps of Tom ≡ 5 jumps of Jerry
| ∴ 8 jumps of Tom ≡ | × 8 | |
