Solution

17 Rupees = 1700 paise   (Rs 1 = 100 paise)

25 Rupees 60 paise = 25 Rupees + 60 paise = 2500 paise + 60 paise = 2560 paise

∴ Ratio of 17 Rupees to 25 Rupees 60 paise

= 1700 paise : 2560 paise

= `1700/2560`

= `[1700 ÷ 20]/[ 2560 ÷ 20]`   ...(HCF of 1700 and 2560 = 20)

= `85/128`

= 85 : 128
