Among the bar for Beverages, store D has the highest revenue.
Now, We are asked to calculate the ratio of Prepared Food to Packaged Food and not the other way. Hence, in this sort of question if you are running out of time a calculated guess can be applied.
Since, the revenue from the Prepared food is less than the revenue from Packaged food. The ratio will be less than 1 therefore, we can eliminated option B and C.
The answer is \(\frac{15}{40}\) which reduces to \(\frac{3}{8}\)
Hence A
