Required ratio is 2 : 3 : 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the age of Samir is x years.
Since Samir's age is one-fourth of his father's age, his father's age is thrice of his, i.e., the age of Samir's father is 4x years.
Since Samir's age is two-third of his sister Reema, Reema's age is 3/2 of his age, i.e., the age of Reema is 3x/2 years.
Hence the the ratio of ages of Samir, Reema and their father is
= x : 3x/2 : 4x
= 1 : 3/2 : 4
= 2 : 3 : 8
