If integers a,b,c are positive and a/b= 5/2 and a/c=7/5

When you have two positive integers a and b, and the ratio of a to b is 5 to 2, then a must always be a multiple of 5, and b must always be a multiple of 2. This will always be true when you have a ratio of two integers, provided the ratio is completely reduced (so if you knew, say, the ratio of a to b was 10 to 4, you'd need to reduce that ratio to 5 to 2 first before drawing any conclusions about multiples).

So here, we know that the ratio of a to b is 5 to 2, so a is a multiple of 5. We also know the ratio of a to c is 7 to 5, so a is a multiple of 7. Thus a is a multiple of both 5 and 7, and the smallest possible value of a is 35. If a is 35, then since a/b = 5/2, b would be 14, and 2a + b = 84.
