from the question, @x = 2@y
H = mc
making c subject
c = H/m@
since mass is the same c = H/@
cx = H/2@y
cy = H/@y
cx /cy = H/2@y ÷ H/@y
cx/cy = H/2@y × @y/H
cx/cy = @y/2@y = 1/2
cx/cy = 1:2

I think the answer is supposed to be A coz x =2*y and if you divide both sides by y then x/y = 2 which is 2:1. That's option A
