Correct Answer - Option 1 : 17 ∶ 6

Given :-

x ∶ y = 4 ∶ 3

(2x + 3y) ∶ (3x – 2y) 

Calculation :- 

⇒ (x/y) = (4/3)

Put the value of x and y in the given equation

According to the question:

(2x + 3y) ∶ (3x – 2y) 

⇒ (2 × 4 + 3 × 3) ∶ (3 × 4 – 2 × 3)

⇒ (8 + 9) ∶ (12 – 6)

⇒ 17 ∶ 6

⇒ (2x + 3y) ∶ (3x – 2y) = 17 ∶ 6

∴ (2x + 3y) ∶ (3x  2y) is 17 ∶ 6.
