Solution

To solve this problem, we need to find the ratio of a to c. We can do this by multiplying the two given ratios together.

Step 1: Write down the given ratios. a : b = 5 : 2 b : c = 7 : 9

Step 2: Multiply the two ratios together. (a : b) * (b : c) = (a : c) (5 : 2) * (7 : 9) = (57 : 29) = (35 : 18)

So, the ratio of a to c is 35 : 18. Therefore, the correct answer is B. 35 : 18.
