Refer this,
x : y = 2 : 3
3x = 2y

(5x + 2y) : (3x - y)
= 8x : y
= 16 : 3

Bro Vinay Kaushik...u r crazy man...

It can be solved by just applying the number in respect of the variable given thereto...

i.e. x = 2 and y = 3....on such ratio [5(2)+2(3)] : [3(2)-3] = 16:3

It's indeed mister....I can even solve that problem by using different methods...but u can't showcase ur intelligence on others by imitating that u have solved in a different way...

One must solve such queries in a concise way that it must be understandable...need to grow up little boy
