Q.If \(4x = 5y = 6z\), what is the value of the ratio \(x : y : z\)? (a) 12:10:15 (b) 10:12:15 (c) 15:12:10 (d) 15:10:12
Answer: C
Let \(4x = 5y = 6z = k\) Then, \(x = \cfrac{k}{4},\ y = \cfrac{k}{5},\ z = \cfrac{k}{6}\) \(\therefore x : y : z = \cfrac{k}{4} : \cfrac{k}{5} : \cfrac{k}{6}\) \(= \cfrac{1}{4} : \cfrac{1}{5} : \cfrac{1}{6}\) \(= 15 : 12 : 10\)
