Time taken - 57 Seconds
IMO - D

Let the power of the 9 cylinder be 100
10 cylinder - 110
11 - Cylinder - 121
12 cylinder - 133

Ratio -100/133

Comes to approx 0.75.

Better approach someone?

Let's say a 9 cylinder engine has a power of 100

A 10 cylinder would be 110

An 11 cylinder would be 1.1 x 110 = 121

A 12 cylinder would be 1.1 x 121 = 133.1

The ratio is 100/133.1 = approx .75.

IMO: D.
