Cross multiply
10 x 9 = 90
3 x k = 3k
make an equality
90 = 3k
divide both sides by 3
90/3 = k
simplify
30 = k
(2 x 1000000) + (4 x 100000) + (0 x 10000) + (8 x 1000) + (6 x 100) + (1 x 10) + (5 x 1)
Hi!
We know that Mr. Abraham’s wife is 6 years younger than him, which is 36-6, which means his wife is 30 years old.
We also know that Mr A’s son is 24 years younger than his wife, which is 30-24, which is 6.
As of right now, we now know that:
Mr. A is 36
Mr. A’s wife is 30
Mr. A’s son is 6
It’s asking for the ratio of Him:Wife:Son, so 36:30:6.
BUT, it’s asking for simplest form, so divide each of those numbers by 6.
Your answer is: 6:5:1
