Detailed Solution

To find which ratio is greater we will convert them into fractions and then make the denominators the same using LCM.
40 25   and 75 121  
25=1×5×5  
121=1×11×11  
LCM of 25 and 121 is 3025.
Now,
40 25 = 40×121 25×121 = 4840 3025  
75 121 = 75×25 121×25 = 1875 3025  
Since, both the fractions have the same denominator, on comparing 40 25 > 75 121  .
Hence, the given statement is true and option 1 is correct.
