Just as a start the initial ratio is this:
\n" ); document.write( "
\r\n" );
document.write( "A  :  B  :  C\r\n" );
document.write( " 3 :  4  :  5\r\n" );
document.write( "36 : 48  : 60\r\n" );
document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "B having 48 initially, is 12 times as much as \"4\".
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
