Question

If x=y2x=\frac{y}{2}​ and y=z6y=\frac{z}{6}​, then x:y:zx:y:z​ is equal to :

A.

2 : 12 : 1

B.

1 : 2 : 3

C.

1 : 2 : 12

D.

1 : 2 : 6

Correct option is C

Given:
x = y2\frac y2

y = z6\frac z6
Formula Used:
To find the ratio x : y : z, express all variables in terms of a common variable.
Solution:
From the given relations:
x = y2\frac y2​, so y = 2x

y =z6\frac z6​, so z = 6y.
Now, substitute y = 2x into z = 6y:
z = 6 × 2x = 12x.
Thus, x : y : z = x : 2x : 12x.
Now, divide by x: 1 : 2 : 12.
Therefore, the ratio x : y : z is 1 : 2 : 12.
