Hey mate ur answer is here!

Given,
ratio of 1st to 2nd = 13:16
ratio of 2nd to 3rd= 2:3

In both cases 2nd number appears. so make the 2 in the 2nd ratio as 16.
so multiply by 8 on both sides of the ratio to balance it.
2:3=(2*8):(3*8)
=16:24

Now,ratio of three numbers=13:16:24
So, the numbers are 13x, 16x, 24x
=>13x + 16x + 24x = 212
53x = 212
X= 4
Multiply X(4) value with 13,16,24
The numbers are 52, 64, 96
