The ratio between the total expenditure on salary for all the years and the total expenditure on fuel and transport for all years respectively is approximately.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
Total expenditure on salary for all years = 185+328+369+425+389 = 1696
Total expenditure on fuel and transport for all years = 96 + 156+135+124+134 = 741
Required ratio = 1696 : 741
