  1. The ratio of the number of boys and that of girls in a school having 504 students is 13 :11. What will be the new ratio if 3 more girls are admitted?
    1. 7 : 6
    2. 6 : 7
    3. 10 :11
    4. 13 :14
Correct Option: A

Number of boys

=
13
× 504
13 + 11

=
13
× 504 = 273
24

Number of girls
= 504–273 = 231
3 girls are admitted.
∴  Required ratio = 273 : 234
= 7 : 6
