Question

if p:q=3/4:2 and p:r=1/3:1/2 find p:q:r

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

p:q=3/4:2

we can write as

p:q=3/4:2 /1. (p/Q= 3/8)

Therefore, the value of

p:q=3:8. ------------(1)

and p:r=1/3:1/2

we can write as

p:r=2:3 (p/r=2/3)----------(2)

Now make both p as equal in (1) & (2)

multiply (1)by 2 & (2) by 3

we get

p:q=(3:8)X2 & p:r=(2:3)X3

p:q=6:16 & p:r=6:9

Therefore, p:q:r = 6:16:9.
