Correct Answer: 5 : 3


Solution : Number of boys in year A = 80
Number of boys in year C = 120
$\therefore$ Number of boys in years A and C together = 80 + 120 = 200
Number of girls in year E = 40
Number of girls in year F = 80
$\therefore$ Number of girls in years E and F together = 40 + 80 = 120
So, the ratio of the number of boys in years A and C together to the number of girls in years E and F together = 200 : 120 = 5 : 3
Hence, the correct answer is 5 : 3.
