Write a a and c c in term of b b : a = 3 2 b a=\frac{3}{2}b and c = 3 4 b c=\frac{3}{4}b . Now bashing, a + b + c = 3 2 b + b + 3 4 b = 13 4 b a+b+c=\frac{3}{2}b+b+\frac{3}{4}b=\frac{13}{4}b and 3 a + 3 b 6 c = 9 2 b + 3 b 9 2 b = 3 b 3a+3b-6c=\frac{9}{2}b+3b-\frac{9}{2}b=3b .

Hence , dividing we get 13 4 b × 1 3 b = 13 12 1 , 08333 \frac{13}{4}b\times\frac{1}{3b}=\frac{13}{12}\approx1{,}08333
