A:B = 2/5 : 4/15 = 3:2.
B = 1210/(3+2)*2 = 484.
B = 1210/(3+2)*2 = 484.

To find B=?.
B = 1210*2/5.
B = 2420/5.
B = 484,
B = 1210*2/5.
B = 2420/5.
B = 484,

B'S =2/5
A's =3/5
so how A IS EQUAL TO B(A=B)
A's =3/5
so how A IS EQUAL TO B(A=B)

a/b = 3/2, a:b = 3:2
5 ----> 1210
2 ----> 484
5 ----> 1210
2 ----> 484
