For $x$, $y$, and $z$ positive real numbers, what is the maximum possible value for\[\sqrt{\frac{3x 4y}{6x 5y 4z}} \sqrt{\frac{y 2z}{6x 5y 4z}} \sqrt{\frac{2z 3x}{6x 5y 4z}}

Answer:

Infinity

Explanation:

Since x,y,z are positive rel numbers, we have that


(3x4y)/(6x5y4z)=(1)/(10z)\\\\\\(y2z)/(6x5y4z)=(1)/(60x)\\\\\\(2z3x)/(6x5y4z)=(1)/(20y)

Hence,


\sqrt{(3x4y)/(6x5y4z)}\sqrt{(y2z)/(6x5y4z)}\sqrt{(2z3x)/(6x5y4z)}\\\\\\=\sqrt{(1)/(10z)(1)/(60x)(1)/(20y)}=\sqrt{(1)/(12000xyz)}

Now let


f(x,y,z)=\sqrt{(1)/(12000 xyz)}

if we take x=y=1, we have


f(1,1,z)=\sqrt{(1)/(12000z)}

and so f(1,1,z) tends to infinity as z goes to 0.
