The ratio that i got is 58.66 to 115.2 so i thought it must be B because if take 59 to 116 then the ratio will change.

Do you have the explanation for this question?

nah, B is not the answer
we find worker is between 58,8 or=59 and 115,2 =115
thus the answer must be A
what is the answer?
P/S : jesus, the Gmat maths in Gmatfix you gave is so time-consuming and tough for some question
