    If 5A - 2B = 0 and 4B - 5C = 0, then C : A = ? 
    Question

    If 5A - 2B = 0 and 4B - 5C = 0, then C : A = ? 

    A.

    4 : 6

    B.

    2 : 1

    C.

    6 : 4

    D.

    1 : 2

    Correct option is B

    Given:

    5A2B=05A−2B=0 .....(Eq1)

    4B5C=04B−5C=0 .........(Eq2)

    Ratio C : A = ?

    Solution:

    From equation (1):

    2B=5A2B = 5A  

    B=5A2B = \frac{5A}{2} 

    From equation (2):

    5C=4B5C = 4B 

    C=4B5C = \frac{4B}{5} 

    Now, substitute B=5A2B = \frac{5A}{2}​ into the equation for CC

    C=45×5A2C= \frac{4}{5} \times \frac{5A}{2}   

    C=20A10C = \frac{20A}{10} 

    C=2AC= 2A 

    CA=21\frac{C}{A} = \frac{2}{1} 

    Thus C : A = 2 : 1
