If m, r, x, and y are positive, is the ratio of m to r equal to the ratio of x to y?
(1) The ratio of m to y is equal to the ratio of x to r
(2) The ratio of m + x to r + y is equal to the ratio of x to y
REPHRASE----------- m/r = x/y ? .....my = xr ?
a) m/y = x/r........mr = xy.....Insuff
b)
m+x/r+y = x/y
mx + xy = xy + xr
mx = xr
suff
Ans: B
