Solution(By Examveda Team)

Number of mobile phones sold by B during July

Number of mobile phones sold by B during December
$$\eqalign{ & = 45000\times\frac{16}{100}\times\frac{9}{16} \cr & = 4050 \cr & \therefore \text{Required ratio} \cr & = \frac{3570}{4050} \cr & = \frac{119}{135} \cr & = 119:135 \cr} $$
