10%of x=(x/100)×10
20%of y=(y/100)×20
Given that
(x/100)×10=(y/100)×20

ANSWER IS
AS we all know that Proportion is the equality of two ratios.
a:b::c:d we can also write as a:b=c:d so here a and d are extremes and b and c are means same concept i used here i.e
10% x=20% y so here a=10,b=x, c=20, d=y so same a d are extremses and b c are means so we can rewritten as 10%y=20%x i.e 1y=2x so they ask x:y ratio so 2:1
i hope it is useful
