The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Number of girls = \(300\)
No. of girls wearing spectacles = \(25\% \;of \;300 = 75\)
No. of girls not wearing spectacles = \(25\% \;of\; 300 = 225\)
Ratio of girls wearing spectacles to girls not wearing spectacles
= \(75:225 =1:3\)
Hence Quantity A = Quantity B
The correct option is (A): The two quantities are equal
