B13 : 15 : 20

C13 : 14 : 15

D15 : 17 : 19

Nithin ? undefined

Correct answer is: 13 : 15 : 20

Explanation:

Number of students :
A => 5x
B => 6x
C=> 8x
Therefore, Required ratio

\(= \frac{5x \times 130}{100}:\frac{6x \times 125}{100}:\frac{8x \times 125}{100}\)

= 650 : 750 : 1000
= 13 : 15 : 20
