If A:B = 2:3, B:C = 4:5, C:D = 6:7, find A:B:C:D.
A. 16:24:30:35
B. 16:24:30:37

Correct Option
Explanation
A:B = 8:12. B:C = 12:15. A:B:C = 8:12:15. C:D = 6:7. Multiply A:B:C by 2 and C:D by 5 to match C=30. A:B:C = 16:24:30. C:D = 30:35. So, 16:24:30:35.

Correct Option
Explanation
Larger part is 4 parts. 4 parts = 120 => 1 part = 30. Total parts = 7. Total sum = 7 * 30 = 210.

Correct Option
Explanation
(p/q) * (q/r) = p/r. (3/4) * (8/9) = 24 / 36 = 2 / 3. So p:r = 2:3.

Correct Option
Explanation
Ratio = 1/2 : 1/3 : 1/4. Multiply by LCM(2,3,4) = 12 to get 6:4:3. Sum of parts = 13. Value of 1 part = 52 / 13 = 4. Smallest side = 3 parts = 3 * 4 = 12 cm.

Divide Rs. 680 among A, B, and C such that A gets 2/3 of what B gets and B gets 1/4 of what C gets. C's share is:
A. Rs. 480
B. Rs. 510
C. Rs. 540
D. Rs. 600

Correct Option
Explanation
A = (2/3)B, B = (1/4)C => C = 4B. A:B:C = (2/3)B : B : 4B = 2/3 : 1 : 4 = 2 : 3 : 12. Total parts = 17. C's share = (12/17) * 680 = 12 * 40 = Rs. 480.
