Question

The table given below shows the number of goals scored by five teams in two matches.

Team	Match 1	Match 2
F1	24	18
F2	12	20
F3	16	22
F4	14	14
F5	12	18

 

What is the ratio of the total number of goals scored by F5 in both matches to the total number of goals scored by F1 in both matches?

1. 5 : 7
2. 9 : 7
3. 7 : 9
4. 7 : 5

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 1 : 5 : 7

Calculation:

The total number of goals in team F5 in both matches = 12 + 18 = 30

The total number of goals in team F1 in both matches = 24 + 18 = 42

The ratio = 30 : 42 = 5 : 7

∴ The required ratio is 5 : 7.
