If 20% of A = 30% of B = 1/6 of C, then A : B : C is –

If 20% of A = 30% of B = $$\frac{1}{6}$$ of C, then A : B : C is –
a) 2 : 3 : 6
b) 3 : 2 : 16
c) 10 : 15 : 18
d) 15 : 10 : 18

Answer: d
Explanation:
$$\eqalign{ & 20\% \,{\text{of A}} = 30\% \,{\text{of B}} = \frac{1}{6}{\text{of C}} \cr & \Rightarrow \frac{{20{\text{A}}}}{{100}} = \frac{{30{\text{B}}}}{{100}} = \frac{{\text{C}}}{{\text{6}}} \cr & \Rightarrow \frac{{\text{A}}}{5} = \frac{{3{\text{B}}}}{{10}} = \frac{C}{6} = k(say) \cr & A = 5K,\,B = \frac{{10k}}{3},\,C = 6k \cr & {\text{A}}:{\text{B}}:{\text{C}} = 5k:\frac{{10k}}{3}:6k \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = 5:\frac{{10}}{3}:6 \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = 15:10:18 \cr} $$
