If you are getting 3:2, you are considering the body to be homogeneous, that is the percent of protein is equal in all parts of the body, which is not the case. This 24% is an average of the distribution of protein across the whole body. So the amount of protein in muscle or bone cannot be determined.

Its given that 24% of protein is present in human body.
But it is not given that 24% of muscles or bones weight is protein.
So distribution of protein is not given.
Answer is cannot be determined.

Proteins in muscle : proteins in bone = 3/10:1/5 = 30:20.
Now proteins = 24%.
= 24*20/100 = 7.2....Muscle.
= 24*30/100 = 4.8....Bone.
i.e 7.2 = 4.8 = 7:5.
= 3:2 is the answer C.
Now proteins = 24%.
= 24*20/100 = 7.2....Muscle.
= 24*30/100 = 4.8....Bone.
i.e 7.2 = 4.8 = 7:5.
= 3:2 is the answer C.

It would be 3:2 for sure. If cannot be determine will be answer then question 1 would also be cannot be determine.

Answer will be 3:2 for sure. Because in ratio and percentage, there is no need of respective distributions.

Right if this answer is not determined than the first must be wrong. Both concepts are same.

The distribution of the protein in parts of the body is not given (24% is given for the whole body, not for individual parts).

The correct answer is 3:2.

Can anyone explain in deatil?

The answer will be CND.
Because here 24% proteins mean total amount of protein present in a human's body not present only in the muscles. And here the distribution of the protein is not given for individual parts.
