Do LCM of 2,3,4.=12.
Now 1/2*12=6,2/3*12=8,3/4*12=9. That's 6:8:9.
Now 1/2*12=6,2/3*12=8,3/4*12=9. That's 6:8:9.

2500:1250:1250 Ans.
1+1/2+1/2= 1+0.5+0.5.
5000/2=2500.
1*2500=2500.
0.5*2500=1250.
0.5*2500=1250.
2500+1250+1250= 5000.
1+1/2+1/2= 1+0.5+0.5.
5000/2=2500.
1*2500=2500.
0.5*2500=1250.
0.5*2500=1250.
2500+1250+1250= 5000.

Add 6, 8, 9 ans is 23,
So, 23 is 782 then 6 is 204.
