A : B = 2 : 5
= 6 : 15
B : C = 3 : 7
= 15 : 35
Therefore, A : B : C = 6 : 15 : 35.

if A:B:C then A:B=B:C
now A:B=2:5 &B:C=3:7
therefore multiply both denominator&numerator in A:B by 3
&multiply both denominator &numerator in B:C by5
u will get A:B=6:15&B:C=15:35 THUS the answer follows as
A:B:C=6:15:35 (The above process has been carried out to make the value of B in both the given ratios equal)

Multiply so the B's become common.
A:B = 2:5 (multiply by three to get A:B = 6:15)
B:C = 3:7 (multiply by five to get B:C = 15:35)
A:B:C = 6:15:35

A/B = 2/5
B/C = 3/7 . . . . . multiply A/B by 3 . . . B/c by 5
A:B:C = 6: 15:35

a/b = 2/5
b/c = 3/7
a/b/c = 2/5/3/7
2/5 / 3/7
2 * 7
------
5 * 3
14/15
