Detailed Solution

Concept- We use ratios to compare the values of two different things and ‘:’ sign is used to separate the two values. Another way to write fraction is illustrated below

a : b = \frac{a}{b}

Ratio and fractions for given question

	Dogs: Cats	Fraction
Paw paw	9:7	$\frac{9}{7}$
Happy feet	14:8	$\frac{14}{8}$

Expressing these fractions in percentage for the comparison:

\frac{9}{7} = 1.285

= 1.285 \times 100

= 128.5 %

= \frac{14}{8} = 1.75

= 1.75 \times 100

= 175 %

This implies that the ratio of Dogs and cats of the pet supply chain Paw is lower than that of Happy feet.
Hence, the correct option is 1.
