Given, (3x – 4y): (2x – 3y) = (5x – 6y): (4x – 5y)This can be rewritten as$$\dfrac{3x - 4y}{2x - 3y} = \dfrac{5x - 6y}{4x - 5y}$$$$\dfrac{3x - 4y + 2x - 3y}{3x - 4y - 2x - 3y} = \dfrac{5x - 6y + 4x - 5y}{5x - 6y - 4x - 5y}$$$$\dfrac{5x - 7y}{x - y} = \dfrac{9x - 11y}{x - y}$$5x – 7y = 9x – 11y4y = 4xx/y = 1/1Thus,x: y = 1: 1
