Find the fourth proportion to 2,3,6

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
a:b = 2:3 \\
b:c = 4:3 = (4*\frac{3}{4} : 3*\frac{3}{4}) \\
= 3:\frac{9}{4} \\
a:b:c = 2:3:\frac{9}{4} \\
= 8:12:9
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

let x = 1k and y = 3k, so
\begin{aligned}
= \frac{7(k)+3(3k)}{2(k)+1(3k)} \\
= \frac{16k}{5k} \\
= 16:5
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Dog : Hare = (3*3) leaps of hare : 5 leaps of hare
= 9 : 5

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Treat 2:9 as 2/9 and x:18 as x/18, treat :: as =

So we get 2/9 = x/18
=> 9x = 36
=> x = 4

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Let x is subtracted.
Then,
\begin{aligned}
\frac{(6-x)}{(7-x)}< \frac{16}{21} \\

21(6—x) < 16(7—x)\\
=> 5x > 14 = x > 2.8
\end{aligned}

Least such number is 3
