7A = 6B = 12C
Formula used:
To find the ratio A : B : C, we can equate each term to a common variable and solve for A, B, and C.
Calculations:
Let 7A = 6B = 12C = k
Then,
A = k/7
B = k/6
C = k/12
A : B : C = k/7 : k/6 : k/12
To remove the fractions, multiply each term by the LCM of the denominators (7, 6, 12), which is 84.
A : B : C = (k/7) × 84 : (k/6) × 84 : (k/12) × 84
A : B : C = 12k : 14k : 7k
Since 'k' is common, we can eliminate it.
A : B : C = 12 : 14 : 7
∴ A : B : C = 12 : 14 : 7
