Correct Answer - Option 4 : \(​​2 \over3\)

Strength of concrete:

It is designated in terms of numbers preceded by the letter ‘M’ where M refers to the ‘Mix’ and number represents the characteristic strength.

Tensile strength of concrete = 10% of compressive strength

Bending strength of concrete = 15% of compressive strength

Shear strength of concrete = 20% of compressive strength

Days

Strength of concrete

3

\(\frac{1}{2}\)× Fck

7

 \(\frac{2}{3}\)× Fck

14

0.9 Fck

28

Fck

So, ratio between the strength of concrete at 7 days to 28 days is \(\frac{2}{3}\)
