      smallest number to largest number is 1:6, and that of smallest number to second smallest number is 1:3, then find the largest number.
      A 60 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 72 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 78 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 90 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the smallest number be 'x' So, second smallest number = 3x And largest number = x Γ— 6 = 6x ATQ: 3x + 6x + x = 130 Or,
      10x = 130 So,
      x = 13 So, largest number = 13 Γ— 6 = 78
