Let Xavier's favourite fraction be a/b, Yessie's favourite fraction = b/a and Zorro's favourite fraction = c/d,

c/d x a/b = 12/35 . . . . . . . . (1)
c/d x b/a = 15/7 . . . . . . . . (2)

(1) x (2) = c/d x a/b x c/d x b/a = 12/35 x 15/7
 c^2 / d^2 = 36/49
c^2 = 36
c = 6
d^2 = 49
d = 7

Xaviers favourite fraction = 12/35 / 6/7 = 2/5
Yessies favourite fraction = 5/2
Zorro favourite fraction = 6/7

9880 different possibilities are there in Sally's new combination option second 9880 is correct.

<h3>What is permutation and combination?</h3>

A permutation is the number of different ways a set can be organized; order matters in permutations, but not in combinations.

We have:

Total unique numbers consists in a Sally locker = 3

From the digits 0 to 39

Total numbers = 40

Apply combination formula:

= C(40, 3)

= 40!/(3!37!)

= 9880

Thus, 9880 different possibilities are there in Sally's new combination option second 9880 is correct.
