1

Problem

If a : b is 3 : 4 and b : c is 2 : 5. Find a: b: c.

2

Step

Given that

a : b = 3 : 4 & b : c = 2 : 5

3

Step

Ratio 1

Ratio 2

\$3 : 4\$

\$2 : 5\$

4

Step

The common element in both ratios is

b

5

Step

Multiply the second ratio by 2 and the second ratio by 4:

\$(3 \times 2) : (4 \times 2)\$ = 6 : 8

\$(2 \times 4) : (5 \times 4)\$ = 8 : 20

6

Step

Combined ratio of a: b: c is:

6 : 8 : 20

7

Step

Divide all terms by 2 to simplify the ratio

3 : 4 : 10
