a) 56 : 48 : 9
b) 50 : 47 : 9
c) 56 : 42 : 12
d) 56 : 44 : 22
Correct answer is: a) 56 : 48 : 9
Explanation
Here, given ratios are :
A\;:\;B\;=\;7\;:\;6
B\;:\;C\;=\;16\;:\;3
So, find the A\;:\;B\;:\;C we need to multiply the terms :
A\times B=7\times16=112
B\times B=16\times6=96
B\times C=6\times3=18
\therefore A\;:\;B\;:\;C\;=\;112\;:\;96\;:\;18
Or, 56\;:\;48\;:\;9 [simplify, divide by 2]
Ans: A\;:\;B\;:\;C\;=\;56\;:\;48\;:\;9\;.
There are different versions of this math question:
- Given that A:B = 7:6 and B:C = 16:3, determine the value of A:B:C.
- If the ratio of A to B is 7:6 and the ratio of B to C is 16:3, what is the ratio of A to B to C?
- If the ratio of A to B is 7:6 and the ratio of B to C is 16:3, what is the combined ratio of A:B:C?
