The first three terms of a series are increased by 50% and the last 3 terms of the series are decreased by 50%. If the series so formed is 33, 42, 48, 50, 55, 60, find the ratio of the initial series.

The first three terms of a series are increased by 50% and the last 3 terms of the series are decreased by 50%. If the series so formed is 33, 42, 48, 50, 55, 60, find the ratio of the initial series. Correct Answer 11 : 14 : 16 : 50 : 55 : 60

The initial terms will be : 33 / 150 * 100 = 22 42 / 150 * 100 = 28 48 / 150 * 100 = 32 50 / 50 * 100 = 100 55 / 50 * 100 = 110 60 / 50 * 100 = 120 The initial series = 22, 28, 32, 100, 110, 120 The ratio of the initial series = 11 : 14 : 16 : 50 : 55 : 60
