Giving your answer in its simplest form

Respuesta :

The ratio of p:q:r is 1 : 6 : 5 / 6

Ratio:

Ratio compares values. Ratios compares relationship between two numbers of same units. Ratios can be express in fraction too.

Therefore,

p:q = 1/3 : 2  = 1 / 3 × 1 / 2 = 1 / 6

p : r = 3/4:1/2  = 3 / 4 × 2 / 1 = 6 / 5

p:q  = 1 /  6

p / q = 1 / 6

p = 1 / 6 q

q = 6p

Therefore,

p : r = 6 / 5

p / r = 6 / 5

6r = 5p

r = 5 / 6 p

Therefore,

P : q: r = p : 6p : 5 /6 p

Therefore,

P : q: r = 1 : 6 : 5 / 6
