    Here are the steps to solve this problem: * Ratio of red cars to black cars is 5:6 * Ratio of black cars to white cars is 3:10 * To find the ratio of red cars to black cars to white cars, we write the ratios in terms of a common quantity: * Let's say there are 10 total cars * Then there are 5 red cars and 6 black cars * The ratio of black cars to white cars is 3:10 * So if there are 6 black cars, there must be 10 * (3/10) = 3 white cars * Therefore, the ratio of red cars to black cars to white cars is: 5 : 6 : 3 * In simplest

    Ratio of many numbers
    Ratios can also be used to make comparisons among
    three or more quantities.

    For example, if x = 18, y = 27 and z = 54, then


    x : y : z = 18 : 27 : 54 = 2 : 3 : 6

    From the above, we can deduce that

    x:y=2:3
    y:z=3:6=1:2
    x:z=2:6=1:3
