Answer:

4 : 6 : 7

Step-by-step explanation:

given the ratio

[tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] : [tex]\frac{3}{10}[/tex] : [tex]\frac{7}{20}[/tex]

multiply each part of the ratio by 20 ( the LCM of 5, 10, 20 )

20 × [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] : 20 × [tex]\frac{3}{10}[/tex] : 20 × [tex]\frac{7}{20}[/tex] ( simplify each part )

= 4 : 6 : 7 ← in simplest form

simplest form means the numbers have no other common factor apart from 1
