Answer:

D

Explanation:

So the ratio is 8:6 right now and they want to sell 10 each. I can tell you now it's gonna change because neither 6 nor 8 goes into 10 evenly. Now to find out what it'll be

So currently, you found out Terrence has 36 and Jim has 48

So each is going to sell 10. That means...

Jim will have 38 and Terrence will have 26


(38)/(26)

Now we'll just simplify until we can't anymore


(38)/(26) = (19)/(1 3)

19 and 13 are prime numbers... that's the most I can go
