Correct option is B
Let's go through the solution step by step.
Given:
- A : B = 3
- We need to determine the ratio 144A : 36B
Step 1: Express the given ratio as a fraction
Since A : B = 3, we can write:
A / B = 3
Multiplying both sides by 144 and 36 respectively:
(144A) / (36B) = (144 × A) / (36 × B)
Step 2: Substitute A / B = 3
(144 × 3B) / 36B = (432B) / 36B
Cancel B from numerator and denominator:
432 / 36 = 12
Final Answer: (B) 12
