Question

if a=b/2=c/5 then a:b:c is​

Answer 1

Answer: 1 : 2 : 5

Step-by-step explanation: First we need to take a reference variable ,

Here , I have taken it as b .

According to question ,

a = b/2

b = b

c/5 = b/2

So , c = 5b/2

Hence there ratio is -

b/2 : b : 5b/2

= 1/2 : 1 : 5/2  (b cancels out)

= 0.5 : 1 : 2.5

= 1 : 2 : 5    (Multiplying by 2 to simplify the ratio)

Thus, this is the answer .
