There are 5 terms a, b, c, d and e in a series. A = 4b, b = 7c, c = 2d, d = half of e and e = 12. Find the ratio of the series.

There are 5 terms a, b, c, d and e in a series. A = 4b, b = 7c, c = 2d, d = half of e and e = 12. Find the ratio of the series. Correct Answer 56 : 14 : 2 : 1 : 2

e = 12 D = e / 2 = 12 / 2 = 6 C = 2d = 6 * 2 = 12 B = 7c = 12 * 7 = 84 A = 4b = 84 * 4 = 336 The required ratio = 336 : 84 : 12 : 6 : 12 = 56 : 14 : 2 : 1 : 2
