Callum Schultz · Answer 1

a:b:c = 15:24:100.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to make the values of b the same in both ratios so we multiply b = 6 by 4/3 to make it 8 and also multiply 25 by 4/3.

6 25 = 8 : 33.33 ...

So a:b:c = 5:8:33.33 ...

To convert to whole numbers we multiply by 3:

a:b:c = 15:24:100.
