If a : b = 3 : 4, b : c = 4 : 7, then $$\frac{{a + b + c}}{c}$$   is equal to -

A. 1

B. 2

C. 3

D. 7

Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

$$\eqalign{ & = a:b = 3:4 \cr & = b:c = 4:7 \cr & \Rightarrow a:b:c = 3:4:7 \cr & {\text{Let }}a = 3k, \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,b = 4k, \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,c = 7k. \cr & {\text{Then,}} \cr & \frac{{a + b + c}}{c} \cr & = \frac{{3k + 4k + 7k}}{{7k}} \cr & = \frac{{14k}}{{7k}} \cr & = 2 \cr} $$
