    Price-earnings ratio = Market price per share/Earnings per share

    = $115/$102

    = 1.1

    Explanation:

    Price-earnings ratio is the ratio of market price per share to earnings per share. Market price per share = $115 and earnings per share = $102.

    The division of market price per share by earnings per share gives price-earnings ratio.
