If p,q, r, s and t are nonzero integers, is p/r = s/t ?

1) s=3p and t =3r

2) 3p = 2r and 3s = 2t

1) s=3p and t =3r

2) 3p = 2r and 3s = 2t

1: it is clarly suff.
2: if 3p = 2r
p/r = 2/3

similarly 3s = 2t
s/t = 2/3

p/r = s/t = 2/3 suff.

1) s/p=3= t/r
--> p/r=s/t
sufficient
2) sufficient..

IMO D
1) s/t =p/r
2)p/s=r/t

IMO D
