  1. A:B = 1/4:1/5 = 1/4×20 : 1/5×20  (multiplying both ratios by LCM of 4,5)

    ∴ A:B = 5:4

    similarly,

    B:C = 1/7:1/6 = 1/7×42 : 1/6×42  (multiplying both ratios by LCM of 7,6)

    ∴  B:C = 6:7

    now take LCM of 4,6 both values of B

    ∴   A:B =  5×3: 4×3 = 15/12

    B:C  =  6×2 : 7×2 = 12/14

    ∴ A:B:C = 15: 12: 14
