Best answer
Correct Answer - Option 1 : 1.6

Calculation:

Arrears of Amit and Suresh = (6000 + 6300)

⇒ 12300

Arrears of Nitin and Varun = (5000 + 7500)

⇒ 12500

Required difference = (12500 – 12300)

⇒ 200

Required percentage = 200/12500 × 100

⇒ 200/125

⇒ 8/5

⇒ 1.6

∴ The Arrears of Amit and Suresh taken together less than the Arrears of Nitin and Varun taken together is 1.6
