A total of 30 percent of the geese included in a certain migration study were male. If some of the geese migrated during the study and 20 percent of the migrating geese were male, what was the ratio of the migration rate for the male geese to the migration rate for the female geese? [Migration rate for geese of a certain sex = (number of geese of that sex migrating) / (total number of geese of that sex)] Choose the correct choice from the following answers.
A) 1/4	B) 7/12	C) 2/3	D) 7/8	E) 8/7
Let there be g geese, of which 0.3g are male and 0.7g are female   Lets say m geese migrated, 0.2m are male and 0.8m are female   Migration Rate Male = 0.2m / 0.3g = (2/3)*(m/g)   Migration Rate Female = 0.8m / 0.7g = (8/7)*(m/g)   Ratio of migration rates = (2/3) / (8/7) = 7/12   Answer is (7/12)
