The true statement is (d) the product of c and b could be multiplied by one-third.

<h3>How to determine the true statement?</h3>

The variation equation can be represented as:

$a = \frac{bc}{d}$

When the value of d is tripled, the equation becomes

$a = \frac{bc}{3d}$

This means that: the product of c and b could be multiplied by one-third.

Hence, the true statement is (d)
