Answer:
128 : 192 : 240
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
A : B = 2 : 3
That is B = 1.5A
Then in fractional form
[tex]\frac{B}{C}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] , so
[tex]\frac{1.5A}{C}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )
4C = 7.5A ( divide both sides by 4 )
C = 1.875A = 1.875 × 2 = 3.75
The ratios of A : B : C = 2 : 3 : 3.75
Sum the parts of the ratio , 2 + 3 + 3.75 = 8.75
Divide the quantity by 8.75 to find the value of one part of the ratio
560 ÷ 8.75 = 64 , then
2 parts = 2 × 64 = 128
3 parts = 3 × 64 = 192
3.75 parts = 3.75 × 64 = 240
Then A : B : C = 128 : 192 : 240
