• first no. :sec no. : third no.=9x:6x:4x; (9x)^2+(6x)^2+(4x)^2=532;
  therefore x=2;so,sec no. is 6x=6*2=12

• here 9X:6x=6x:4x=3:2
  so (9x)^2+(6x)^2+(4x)^2=532
  x=2......second no=6x=6*2=12

• 12
  
  According to the ration provided we can deduce that
  a=3b/2,c=2b/3
  So
  Now square and add by placing a & c value in terms of b and b as it is
  And solve the equation: b=12
