Correct Answer: 60
Solution : Given ratio: $\frac{1}{2}:\frac{2}{3}:\frac{4}{5}$ LCM of 2, 3 and 5 = 30 Multiplying all ratios by 30, we get, $(\frac{1}{2} × 30) : (\frac{2}{3} × 30) : (\frac{4}{5} × 30)$ $=15 : 20 : 24$ The sum of the terms of the ratio = 15 + 20 + 24 = 59 $\therefore$ The second part $= \frac{20}{59} × 177 = 60$ Hence, the correct answer is 60.
