    A) 7 : 8                             

    B) 8 : 7

    C) 9 : 8                 

    D) 9 : 7

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    According to the question, \[E+M=170\]                             ...(i) \[E-M=10\]                                ...(ii) Adding both the equations,             \[2E=180\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[E=90\] From Eq (i),             \[M=\text{ }170-90=80\] \[\therefore \]      \[\frac{E}{M}=\frac{9}{8}\]
