The ratio of two quantities is 2 : 3. If each of the quantities is increased by 6, what is the ratio of the new quantities?	Select: A) 2 : 3 B) 6 : 7 C) 8 : 9 D) 8 : 3 E) It cannot be determined from the information given
let quantities are 2x and 3x   ratio of quantities after each is increased by 6 = (2x+6)/(3x+6)   For x = 1, (2x+6)/(3x+6) = 8/9   For x = 2, (2x+6)/(3x+6) = 10/12   The value of final expression is dependent on the value of x which can't be determined as per given information. Hence, The answer can not be determined   Answer: Option It cannot be determined from the information given
