1:40 because if we think of this just like a fraction
that simplifys down to
and because fraction simplifications are similar (related to each other) we can concur that these would be too.

Answer:
D is the answer of the question
Though there are many common factors of 24, 36, and 60, thegreatest common factor (GCF) of 24, 36, and 60 is 12.
(2x + 1)^2 - 2(2x^2 - 1) = 4x^2 + 4x + 1 - 4x^2 + 2 = 4x + 3
white : milk : dark
w : m : d
The ratio of white to not white is 3:4
w : (m+d) = 3:4
The ratio of not dark to dark is 17:4.
(w+m) : d = 17:4
---------
We treat the colons as fraction bars and cross multiply.
4w = 3(m+d) = 3m + 3d
4w + 4m = 17 d
Subtracting,
4m = 17d - (3m+3d) = 14d - 3m
7m = 14 d
m/d = 14/7
m:d = 2:1
Since w:(m+d)=3:4 let's make m+d a multiple of 4.
m:d = 8:4
w : (m+d) = 3:4 = 9:12
w:m:d = 9:8:4
Answer: 9:8:4
Check:
white to non white 9 to 8+4=12 = 3:4, good
non dark to dark (9+8):4=17:4, good
