    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}​​
