Question

If a/b = 5/4 and b/c = 3/2, what is c/a

Answer 1

Explanation:

`(a)/(b) = (5)/(4) \: \: \: \: \: \: (b)/(c) = (3)/(2)`

`(a)/(b) * (b)/(c) = (5)/(4) * (3)/(2)`

`(a)/(c) = (15)/(8)`

`(c)/(a) = (8)/(15)`

Answer 2

`\huge\boxed{\sf (a)/(c) = (15)/(8) \ \ OR \ (c)/(a)= (8)/(15) }`

Explanation:

`\sf Given \ that\\\\(a)/(b) = (5)/(4) \\\\(b)/(c) = \frac{3} {2}\\\\Multiplying \ both \ of \ the \ above \ equations\\\\(a)/(b) * (b)/(c) = (5)/(4) * (3)/(2) \\\\(a)/(c) = (5*3)/(4*2) \\\\\bold{(a)/(c) = (15)/(8) }`

Hope this helped!
