Correct Answer: $10:9$


Solution : Given:
$\frac{A}{B} = \frac{3}{4}$ and $\frac{B}{C} = \frac{6}{5}$
Multiplying both the equations we get,
$\frac{A}{B}\times \frac{B}{C} = \frac{3}{4}\times\frac{6}{5}$
$\frac{A}{C} = \frac{9}{10}$
⇒ $\frac{C}{A} = \frac{10}{9}$
$\therefore C: A=10:9$
Hence, the correct answer is $10:9$
