If x = $$\frac{1}{3}$$y and y = $$\frac{1}{2}$$z, then x : y : z is equal to
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
B
$$\eqalign{
& x = \frac{1}{3}y = \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{1}{2}z = \frac{1}{6}z \cr
& Let\,x\, = \frac{1}{3}y = \frac{1}{6}z = k \cr
& {\text{Then,}} \cr
& x = k,\,y = 3k,\,z = 6k \cr
& \therefore {\text{x}}:{\text{y}}:{\text{z}} = k:3k:6k \cr
& = 1:3:6 \cr} $$
