Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
First, calculate the total number of hardbound books sold by shops C and D together.
Shop C sold 4400 and Shop D sold 5500, so the total is 4400 + 5500 = 9900.
Next, identify the number of paperback books sold by shop D, which is 6600.
The ratio is 9900 : 6600. Simplifying by dividing both numbers by 3300 gives the final ratio of 3 : 2.
