A. 2 : 3 : 6

B. 3 : 2 : 16

C. 10 : 15 : 18

D. 15 : 10 : 18

Answer: Option D

Solution(By Examveda Team)

$$\eqalign{ & 20\% \,{\text{of A}} = 30\% \,{\text{of B}} = \frac{1}{6}{\text{of C}} \cr & \Rightarrow \frac{{20{\text{A}}}}{{100}} = \frac{{30{\text{B}}}}{{100}} = \frac{{\text{C}}}{{\text{6}}} \cr & \Rightarrow \frac{{\text{A}}}{5} = \frac{{3{\text{B}}}}{{10}} = \frac{C}{6} = k(say) \cr & \Rightarrow A = 5K,\,B = \frac{{10k}}{3},\,C = 6k \cr & \therefore {\text{A}}:{\text{B}}:{\text{C}} = 5k:\frac{{10k}}{3}:6k \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = 5:\frac{{10}}{3}:6 \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = 15:10:18 \cr} $$
