Answer:

15:100:60 or simplify to 3:20:12

Explanation:

15 is 15 percent of 100, 60 is 3/5 of 100. assume x is 100 because it makes the answer simpler. finally simplify by dividing everything by 5 so that you get the most simplified version of the equation because 3 is a pride umber and can no longer be divided unless in fraction or decimal form.
