 x+10y=4(x+y)  ⇒3x=6y⇒x:y=2:1  12 [ 4×(1+2)=12]  24 [4×(2+4)=24]  36 [4×(3+6)=36]  48 [4×(4+8)=48]
$$\:{x}+\mathrm{10}{y}=\mathrm{4}\left({x}+{y}\right) \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{3}{x}=\mathrm{6}{y}\Rightarrow{x}:{y}=\mathrm{2}:\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\mathrm{12}\:\left[\:\mathrm{4}×\left(\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{2}\right)=\mathrm{12}\right] \\ $$$$\mathrm{24}\:\left[\mathrm{4}×\left(\mathrm{2}+\mathrm{4}\right)=\mathrm{24}\right] \\ $$$$\mathrm{36}\:\left[\mathrm{4}×\left(\mathrm{3}+\mathrm{6}\right)=\mathrm{36}\right] \\ $$$$\mathrm{48}\:\left[\mathrm{4}×\left(\mathrm{4}+\mathrm{8}\right)=\mathrm{48}\right] \\ $$$$\:\: \\ $$
