Solution

3 : 10 = 12 : ? can be written in the form of an equivalent fraction310=12?, In two equivalent fractions numerator and denominator are multiplied by the same number to get the numerator and denominator of the second fraction. Here numerator 3 of the first fraction becomes 12 by multiplying it by 4 and the same number 4 must be multiplied with the denominator 10.
310=3×410×4=1240
So the denominator, in this case, is 40.
Also 3: 10 = ?: 50 can be written in the form of an equivalent fraction310=?50, With the same explanation as in the above equivalent fraction here denominator 10 becomes 50 by multiplying 10 with 5 accordingly 3 multiplied with 5.
310=3×510×5=1550
So the numerator, in this case, is 15.
So question marks blank filled by 40 and 15 respectively.
