A) 3:7	B) 7:9
C) 5:4	D) 8:3

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 8:3

Explanation:

Let the man's rate upstream be x kmph and that downstream be y kmph.

Then, distance covered upstream in 8 hrs 48 min = Distance covered downstream in 4 hrs.

		x x 8	4		= (y x 4)
			5

	44	x =4y
	5

y =	11	x.
	5

Required ratio =		y + x		:		y - x
		2				2

=		16x	x	1		:		6x	x	1
		5		2				5		2

=	8	:	3
	5		5

= 8 : 3.
