If three numbers P, Q, R are in ratio 6 : 4 : 5, find the value of 3p−q4q+r

If three numbers P, Q, R are in ratio 6 : 4 : 5, find the value of $\frac{3p-q}{4q+r}$

Answer Details

P : Q : r = 6 : 4 : 5
5 = 6 + 4 + 5
= 15
P = $\frac{6}{15}$, q = $\frac{4}{15}$, r = $\frac{5}{15}$ = $\frac{1}{3}$
To find $\frac{3p-q}{4q+r}$
3p - q = 3 x $\frac{6}{15}$ - $\frac{4}{15}$
$\frac{18}{15}$ - $\frac{4}{15}$ = $\frac{14}{15}$
∴ 4q + r = 4 x $\frac{4}{15}$ + $\frac{5}{15}$
$\frac{16}{15}$ = $\frac{16}{15}$ + $\frac{5}{15}$
= $\frac{21}{15}$
$\frac{14}{15}$ x $\frac{15}{21}$ = $\frac{14}{21}$
= $\frac{2}{3}$
