Question
If A: B=1, B:C=3:4, C:D=5 then A: B:C:D=Options50:40:48:1515:48:40:3025:30:40:4815:30:40:4848:30:15:40
Solution
To solve this problem, we need to find a common multiplier for B, C, and D in each ratio so we can combine them into one ratio.
-
Start with the given ratios: A:B = 1:1, B:C = 3:4, and C:D = 5:1
-
Multiply the second ratio by 3 and the third ratio by 4 to make B and C the same in all ratios: A:B = 1:1, B:C = 9:12, and C:D = 20:4
-
Now, we can combine these ratios into one: A:B:C:D = 1:1:3:4
-
Multiply the entire ratio by 15 to match the options given: A:B:C:D = 15:15:45:60
So, none of the options given match the correct ratio of 15:15:45:60.
