a hare and a jackal are running a race . 3 leaps of the hare are equal to 4 leaps of the jackal . for every 6 leaps of the hare , the jackal takes 7 leaps . find the ratio of the speed of the hare to the speed of the jackal .	Choose the correct answer: A) 64 : 25 B) 8 : 7 C) 5 : 8 D) 25 : 64 E) 6 : 7

Rationale: the hare takes 6 leaps and the jackal takes 7 leaps . 1 hare leap = 4 / 3 jackal leaps thus the hare ' s 6 leaps = 6 * ( 4 / 3 ) = 8 jackal leaps . the ratio of their speeds is 8 : 7 . the answer is b .
Answer: B
