CorrectNot quiteAnswer B

Correct answer: B

Explanation

  1. Efficiency is work per day: Asha 118\frac{1}{18}, Deepa 124\frac{1}{24}.

  2. Ratio = 118:124=24:18=4:3\frac{1}{18} : \frac{1}{24} = 24 : 18 = 4 : 3.

Worth noting

Efficiency is the inverse of time, so the ratio flips. 3:43 : 4 is the ratio of their times.
