Given:

a : b = 2 : 3

b : c = 4 : 5

Formula Used:

To find a : b : c, make the 'b' values equal in both ratios.

Calculation:

a : b = 2 : 3 ⇒ Multiply by 4 ⇒ a : b = 8 : 12

b : c = 4 : 5 ⇒ Multiply by 3 ⇒ b : c = 12 : 15

Now, the 'b' values are the same (12).

⇒ a : b : c = 8 : 12 : 15

a : b : c = 8 : 12 : 15
