If (30x + 2y)/(4x + y) = (16)/(3), then ...

If `(30x + 2y)/(4x + y) = (16)/(3)`, then find x:y.

A

`7:13`

B

`6:13`

C

`5:13`

D

`4:13`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`(30x + 2y)/(4x + y) = (16)/(3)`
`rArr 90x + 6y = 64x + 16y`
`rArr 26x = 10y`
`rArr x:y = 5:13`
Hence, the correct option is (c).
