If 30 % of A = 0.25 of B = 0.2 of C, then find A : B : C ?

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

Let 0.3A=0.25B=0.2C=k0.3A = 0.25B = 0.2C = k.

Then A=k/0.3A = k/0.3, B=k/0.25B = k/0.25, C=k/0.2C = k/0.2, so A:B:C=10.3:10.25:10.2=103:4:5A:B:C = \dfrac{1}{0.3} : \dfrac{1}{0.25} : \dfrac{1}{0.2} = \dfrac{10}{3} : 4 : 5.

Multiplying by 3 gives 10:12:1510 : 12 : 15.
