Question



Three numbers are in the ratio of 2:5:6 and their sum is 663. Find the three numbers:

A.

107,250, 306

B.

102, 250, 311

C.

102,255, 306

D.

112, 250, 301

Correct option is C

Three numbers are in the ratio of 2 ∶ 5 ∶ 6.
Let the numbers are 2x, 5x and 6x.
Given
2x + 5x + 6x = 663
13x = 663
x = 663 / 13 = 51
So, the numbers are,
First number 2x = 2 × 51 = 102
Second number 5x = 5 × 51 = 255
Third number 6x = 6 × 51 = 306
So, the three numbers are 102, 255 and 306.
