A. 2 : 3 : 3
B. 3 : 4 : 5
C. 4 : 5 : 6
D. 9 : 8 : 10
Answer: Option D

Why multiply by 2 please
Why at last we need to multiple by 2?
Last step
Here,
A:B = 9:8
B:C = 4:5
Taking lcm for b, it is 8. So we multiply by 2. We get B:C = (4:5) * 2
= 8:10
So, a:b:c = 9:8:10
C=100, so, B=60 then A will be 60*75%*2/3=30..
Ratio can be= 3:6:10
B/C= 4/5
How come it's 8/10?
How get 8:10
