451/586.
Take 451 as 450 and 586 as 590.
Because as per approximation or numbers whatever rule it is ex: if the last digit number comes in b/w 1-5 i..e 451, 252, 555..it becomes 450 250 550
where as if the last digit no comes in b/w 6-10 like 456, 227, 228, 449...then take it As 460, 230, 230, 450.
Now 450/590
45/59
45)59(1.3

We can solve it in a very simple way as follows:
Expenses in FUEL & TRANS is how much increased to that of expenses in TAXES.
We can find the increase in percentage like this->
586-451/451 x 100% = 30%.
i.e 100/130 = 10/13 or 10:13.

Simplify 451/586 : 586/451 = 0.76 : 1.28.
Approx.
1 : 1.3.
Note that you can't leave ratio in decimal figure. So, you multiply (1:1.3) by 10
= 10 : 13.
That's all.

Simple method :
Taxes = 451.
Fuel & transportation = 451+135 =586.
Taxes( Total = 451) 100 % : Fuel & Trans 130% ( 100% = 451 + 30% =135, Total =586 ).
TAXES 100 Fuel & Trans 130.
Therefore = 10 x 10 = 100 = 10 x 13 = 130.
So 10 13.
Answer 10 : 13.
Taxes = 451.
Fuel & transportation = 451+135 =586.
Taxes( Total = 451) 100 % : Fuel & Trans 130% ( 100% = 451 + 30% =135, Total =586 ).
TAXES 100 Fuel & Trans 130.
Therefore = 10 x 10 = 100 = 10 x 13 = 130.
So 10 13.
Answer 10 : 13.
