Nothing ya. just simple.

4/15=2/5

How it will bcom equal ? just c the denominator.
4/15
If you multiply 5 by 3 u will get 15 do it in the numerator also so it becoms 6/15 for B. calculate ratio for B now 1210*6/15= 484

solution.
4/15 = 2/5
4/15 = 2/5*3/3
4/15 = 6/15
therefor A:B 4:6
1210 * 6 / 15
484
