A Correct answer
Explanation

let be $ a=\dfrac{3}{5}, b=\dfrac{7}{8}, c=\dfrac{5}{10}$
therefore the $ratio=a\times b\times c=\dfrac{3\times 7\times 5}{5\times 8\times 10}=\dfrac{21}{80}$

_____ is the duplicate ratio of $\dfrac {x}{2} : \dfrac {y}{3}$

  1. $\dfrac {x}{4} : \dfrac {y}{9}$
  2. $\dfrac {x^{2}}{4} : \dfrac {y^{2}}{9}$
  3. $\dfrac {2}{x} : \dfrac {3}{y}$
  4. $\sqrt {\dfrac {x}{2}} : \sqrt {\dfrac {y}{3}}$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

The duplicate ratio of $a : b$ is $b : a$
$\therefore$ The duplicate ratio of $\dfrac {x}{2} : \dfrac {y}{3}$ is $\left (\dfrac {x}{2}\right )^{2} : \left (\dfrac {y}{3}\right )^{2} = \dfrac {x^{2}}{4} : \dfrac {y^{2}}{9}$
