+12 Suppose the ratio of Lev's age to Mina's age is 1:2 and the ratio of Mina's age to Naomi's age is 3:4.
What is the ratio of Lev's age to Naomi's age? Give your answer in simplest form.
Suppose the ratio of Lev's age to Mina's age is 1:2 and the ratio of Mina's age to Naomi's age is 3:4.
What is the ratio of Lev's age to Naomi's age? Give your answer in simplest form.
The easiest way to understand this problem is to assign some ages to the various names in the question:
So, Let us assume that Lev =3 years old, and therefore Mina would be =6 years old. Or 1:2 ratio.
If Mina is 6, then Naomi' s age will be =8 years. Or a 3:4 ratio.
Therefore Lev's age to Naomi's age would be= 3/8, or 3:8 ratio. And this ratio will hold true whatever ages you give them according to the ratios given. Example: If Lev is 12, then Mina will be 24, and Naomi will be 32 years old. So, 12:32 =3:8...... and so on.

| Lev | Mina | mina | Naomi | |
| 1*3 | 2*3 | 3*2 | 4*2 | |
| 3 | 6 | 6 | 8 |
So the ratio of Lev to Naomi is 3:8
