Multiply 1/2 with 6, 2/3 with 4 and 3/4 with 3 so that numerator is same i.e. 12, hence 6:8:9
First part is 6 upon sum of 6+8+9=23 i.e. 6/23

How 1/2 is attained as 6 2/3 as 8 and 3/4 as 9 and how for calculating the first part the number is multiplied by 6/23 ?

The LCM of all the denominators is 12. So multiply the number and denominator with 6 to make 1/2 as 6/12, multiply 2/3 with 4. So that it becomes 8/12 and multiply 3/4 with 3 to make 9/12. Now the new ratio will be:
6/12, 8/12, 9/12.
Now cancelling 12 we will get 6, 8, 9.

You just need to multiply every ratio by 12 because it is the lcm of denominators.

Taking lcm for 2, 3, 4 and we got 12. Then the numerators 6, 8, 9 were used.

1:2 is multiplyed by 6/6 then it will be 6/12,in second case 2:3 is multiplyed by 4/4 then 8/12, and 3:4 multyplyed by 3/3 then 9/12; it is done because of doing denominators equal,new ratio becomes 6:8:9.

Given :1/2:2/3:3/4=782
Let x b a part of 782 whn divided into 3 parts
(1/2)x:(2/3)x:(3/4)x=782
Take lcm we get
(6x+8x+9x)/12=782
23x=782*12
x=9384/23=408
Now we need 1 part so (1/2)*408 = 204.

Good ranjani. Your method is good :)

See their value is 1/2:2/3:3/4
Then take LCM 2,3,4 it's come 12
Then, (1/2:2/3:3/4)/12
Then 12/2=6 then 6*1=6
12/3=4 then 4*2=8
12/4=3 then 3*3=9
This way we find the 6:8:9.

The given ratios are=1/2:2/3:3/4
Then take the LCM Of the denominator of ratios(2,3,4=12)
Then divide each ratio with 12. for eg:- 1/2*12=6.
