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.

Look again...it WAS answered in your previous post as the first step

l/m * m/n = l/n = 1/2 * 3/4 = 3/8

if lev's age is x and mina's age is 2x, then naomi's age is 8x/3.

 

1/(8/3) is 3/8.

 

answer is 3:8

 

HOPE THIS HELPED!
