\huge \boxed{\mathbb{QUESTION} \downarrow}

  • Simplify ⇨ 35 : 56 : 49


\large \boxed{\mathbb{ANSWER\: WITH\: EXPLANATION} \downarrow}


\sf \: 35 : 56 : 49

Express
\sf ((35)/(56))/(49) \\ as a single fraction. It'll become
\downarrow


\sf(35)/(56* 49) \\

Multiply 56 and 49 to get 2744.


\sf(35)/(2744) \\

Reduce the fraction
\sf(35)/(2744) \\ to its lowest terms by extracting and cancelling out 7.


\boxed{ \boxed{ \bf(5)/(392) }}

  • 5/392 can be written as 5 : 392 or further simplified to 0.0127.

If you want the answer in 3 ratios itself, then you can do the work easily by just dividing the numbers by the common number (here it is 7).

So, 35 : 56 : 49 will become ⇨ 5 : 8 : 7.
