Question

If x3y:xy::xy:ax^3y:xy :: xy :a ​, then which of the options below gives the value of a ?

A.

y2x\frac{y^2}{x}​​

B.

y2x2\frac{y^2}{x^2}​​

C.

yx\frac{y}{x}​​

D.

yx2\frac{y}{x^2}​​

Correct option is C

Given:

x3y:xy::xy:ax^3y:xy :: xy :a

Formula Used:

If 4 numbers a, b, c and d are in proportional then:

a : b : :c : d and a×d=b×ca \times d = b \times c

d=b×cad = \frac{b\times c}{a}​​

Solution:

x3y:xy::xy:ax^3y:xy :: xy :a

a=xy×xyx3ya = \frac{xy\times xy}{x^3y}​ 

=yx= \frac{y}{x}​​
