a) 3\;:\;10\;:\;10
b) 4\;:\;12\;:\;10
c) 9\;:\;12\;:\;10
d) 2\;:\;9\;:\;10
correct answer is: c) 9\;:\;12\;:\;10
Explanation
Here,
A\;:\;B\;=\;3\;:\;4
B\;:\;C\;=\;6\;:\;5
Now, we should equal the term of ‘B’
A\;:\;B\;=3\;:\;4=\large\frac{3}{4}\normalsize=\large\frac{3\times3}{4\times3}\normalsize=\large\frac{9}{12}\normalsize=9\;:\;12
B\;:\;C\;=\;6\;:\;5=\large\frac{6}{5}\normalsize=\large\frac{6\times2}{5\times2}\normalsize=\large\frac{12}{10}\normalsize=12\;:\;10
\therefore A\;:\;B\;:\;C=9\;:\;12\;:\;10
Ans: The value of A\;:\;B\;:\;C is 9\;:\;12\;:\;10\;.
