Question

    If A:B = 7:6 and B:C = 12:15 respectively, then find the

    value of (A + C) :(A + B) .
    A 29:26 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 26:27 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 27:26 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 26:29 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the 'B' and 'C' be 12x and 15x respectively.

    So, the value of 'A' = 12x X (7/6) = 14x

    So, (A + C) = (14x + 15x) = 29x

    Or, (A + B) = (14x + 12x) = 26x

    So, required ratio = 29x:26x = 29:26
