Let the third number be x-Then first number-120- of x-120100-xD7-x-6x5Second number-150- of x150100-xD7-x-3x2-x2234-Ratio of first two number-6x5-3x2-12x-15x-4-5

Two numbers are respectively 20% and 50% more than a third number The ratio of the two numbers is
2 : 5
3 : 5
4 : 5
6 : 7

Let the third number be x.
Then first number=120% of x= $\frac{120}{100} \times x = \frac{6 x}{5}$
Second number=150% of x $\frac{150}{100} \times x = \frac{3 x}{2}$
$∴$ Ratio of first two number= $\frac{6 x}{5} : \frac{3 x}{2} = 12 x : 15 x = 4 : 5$

Two numbers are respectively 20% and 50% more than a third number The ratio of the two numbers is2 : 53 : 54 : 56 : 7
