If $$\frac{2}{3}$$ of A=75% of B = 0.6 of C, then A : B : C is
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
D
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{According}}\,{\text{to}}\,{\text{thequestion,}} \cr
& {\frac{{2A}}{3}} = {\frac{{75B}}{{100}}} = {\frac{{C \times 6}}{{10}}} \cr
& {\text{Above}}\,{\text{relation}}\,{\text{gives}}; \cr
& \frac{{A \times 2}}{3} = \frac{{B \times 3}}{4} \cr
& \to \frac{A}{B} = \frac{9}{8} \cr
& {\text{And}}, \cr
& \frac{{B \times 3}}{4} = \frac{{C \times 3}}{5} \cr
& \to \frac{B}{C} = 4:5 \cr
& \to \frac{B}{C} = 8:10 {\text{ (multiple by 2)}} \cr
& {\text{Thus,}} \cr
& A:B:C = 9:8:10 \cr} $$

LoginHere,
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
Ratio can be= 3:6:10
How come it's 8/10?
