Correct Answer: 8 : 12 : 14 : 3
Solution :
Given:
A : B = 2 : 3 ...................(i)
B : C = 6 : 7 ...................(ii)
C : D = 14 : 3 ...................(iii)
Multiply by 2 in equation (ii) to make C equal
⇒ B : C = 12 : 14
Multiply by 4 in equation(i) to make B equal

$\therefore$ A : B : C : D = 8 : 12 : 14 : 3
Hence, the correct answer is 8 : 12 : 14 : 3.
