题目
The ratio of two adult brothers' ages is 5 to 8.
Quantity A
The ratio of the brothers' ages 8 years ago.
Quantity B
The ratio of the brothers' ages in 6 years.
选项
C.The two quantities are equal.
D.The relationship cannot be determined from the information given.
解析
无论我们决定使用什么年龄,只要满足两者都大于8的限制(否则B会为负数,而年龄不能为负数),数量B都会更大。例如,如果年龄是10和16(即2×5和2×8),数量A将是2/8,数量B将是4/10,因此B更大。答案B
