Question : If $a \propto b, b \propto \frac{1}{c}$ and $c \propto d$, then the relation between $a$ and $d$ is:
Option 1: $a \propto \frac{1}{d}$
Option 2: $a \propto d$
Option 3: $a \propto d^2$
Option 4: $a \propto \sqrt{d}$
Correct Answer: $a \propto \frac{1}{d}$
Solution :
If $a \propto b$, $b \propto \frac{1}{c}$, and $c \propto d$, then we can combine these relations to find the relation between $a$ and $d$.
From $a \propto b$ and $b \propto \frac{1}{c}$, we can infer that $a \propto \frac{1}{c}$.
And since $c \propto d$, then $\frac{1}{c} \propto \frac{1}{d}$.
Therefore, combining these, we get $a \propto \frac{1}{d}$. This means that $a$ is inversely proportional to $d$.
Hence, the correct answer is $a \propto \frac{1}{d}$.
