1) tatanagar
2) calcutta
Read Solution (Total 2)
-
- as per question 'ta' are visible, so total number of 'ta' in both tatanagar & calcutta are 3, so,
1) tatanagar:- 2/3
2) calcutta:- 1/3
this question should not be treated as per 't' & 'a' because in that case order of 't' and 'a' will be there in consideration. - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
