If P : Q : R = 5 : 3 : 6, then what will be the ratio of (P/Q) : (Q/R) : R/P) = ?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 50 : 15 : 36
P : Q : R = 5 : 3 : 6
Let P, Q, R be 5x ,3x ,6x
A/C to question
(P/Q) : (Q/R) : R/P) = ?
(5x/3x) : (3x/6x) : (6x/5x) = ?
5/3 : 3/6 : 6/5 = ?
Take LCM of 3,6,6 = 30
Multiply 5/3, 3/6, 6/5 by 30
5 × 30/3 : 3 × 30/6 : 6 × 30/5
150/3 : 90/6 : 180/5 = 50 : 15 : 36
