If x : y : z = 3 : 4 : 5, then what will be the ratio of (xy):(yz):(zx)(\frac x y):(\frac y z):(\frac z x ) ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 45 : 48 : 100.

Given:

x : y : z = 3 : 4 : 5

Calculations:

Let the value of x, y, and z be 3k, 4k, and 5k.

Hence, Required ratio of (xy):(yz):(zy)(\frac x y):(\frac y z):(\frac z y ) = (3k/4k) : (4k/5k) : (5k/3k)

⇒ (3/4) : (4/5) : (5/3)

⇒ 45 : 48 : 100
