Option 4 : 4 : 1
Total number of students in the class = 140
Ratio of boys to girls is 3 : 4
⇒ Number of boys in the class = 140 × 3/7 = 60
⇒ Number of girls in the class = 140 × 4/7 = 80
Ratio of students who passed to who failed = 3 : 2
⇒ Number of students passed = 140 × 3/5 = 84
⇒ Number of students failed = 140 × 2/5 = 56
Ratio of boys who passed to who failed is 1 : 2
⇒ Number of boys passed = 60 × 1/3 = 20
⇒ Number of boys failed = 60 × 2/3 = 40
⇒ Number of girls passed = 84 – 20 = 64
⇒ Number of girls failed = 56 – 40 = 16
∴ Ratio of the number of girls who passed to those who failed = 64 ∶ 16 = 4 ∶ 1
