Given p/q = 5/6, q/r = 7/10, and r/s = 9/4, find

In each of the equations, manipulate it to get just one variable on one side. Plug the expression back into the expressions.

For example, we know that p/q=5/6. Multiplying boths ides by q, this gives p=5q6. Plugging this back into pqqr will give 5q6qqr.
