Detailed Solution

Concept- The ratio of 25 paise to Rs. 60 is 1:24.
You must first convert the supplied quantities into the same unit, either in rupees or in paise, in order to calculate the ratio of the given quantities. To obtain the necessary ratio, divide the fraction first and then simplify it.
Two amounts — one in paise and the other in rupees —are given in the question, and we must determine their ratio.
Therefore, we shall convert the two amounts given in paise first.
The following table provides the rupee to paise unit conversion:
Having said that,
1 rupee = 100 paise.
So, 60 rupees = 60 ×× 100 paise
                       = 6000 paise
Now, on taking the ratio and further simplifying the quantities, we get:
25 paise: Rs.60 = 25:6000
equals 25 over 6000
   equals 1 over 240
= 1:240
Hence, the correct answer  is 1 : 240
