Correct Answer: $77:42:66$


Solution : Given: $6A=11B=7C$
Let $6A=11B=7C=k$
$⇒A=\frac{k}{6},B=\frac{k}{11},C=\frac{k}{7}$
Ratio of $A:B:C=\frac{k}{6}:\frac{k}{11}:\frac{k}{7}$
$⇒A:B:C=\frac{1}{6}:\frac{1}{11}:\frac{1}{7}$
LCM of $(6, 11, 7) = 462$
Multiplying with it, we get:
$⇒A:B:C=\frac{462}{6}:\frac{462}{11}:\frac{462}{7}$
$\therefore A:B:C = 77:42:66$
Hence, the correct answer is $77:42:66$.
