@Azmath.
We have to divide with branch B4 so first we have to add B4 branch i.e. 95+85 = 180.
To the means we have to divide to get the ratio.

It was just because when we calculate such kind of questions we have to take their alternatives.

75 + 65/85 + 95 = 140/180.
=7/9 => i.e 7 : 9.
=7/9 => i.e 7 : 9.

Is there any reason for placing B4 i.e. 85 + 95 in the numerator?
What comes if we use B2 (i.e 75 + 65) as the numerator. Is there any formula or law for doing that?
