Answer:

p : q : r = 2 : 12 : 3

Step-by-step explanation:

p : q = 1/3 : 2

p : q = 1/3 ÷ 2

p : q = 1/3 × 1/2

p : q = 1/6

p : q = 1:6 -----------(a)

p : r = 1/2 : 3/4

p : r = 1/2 : 3/4

p : r = 1/2 × 4/3

p : r = 2/3

p : r = 2 : 3 -----------(b)

For p in equation (a) to be the same as equation (b) so, multiply equation (a) by 2 and multiply equation (b) by 1

p : q = 1 × 2 : 6 × 2

p : q = 2 : 12

p : r = 2 × 1 : 3 × 1

p : r = 2 : 3

p = 2 : , q = 12 , r = 3

Hope it help

p : q : r = 2 : 12 : 3
