Answer:

a : c = 5 : 24

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]a : b = 1 : 3\\\\\frac{a}{b} = \frac{1}{3} \ => b = 3a\\\\b : c = 5 : 8 \\\\ \frac{b}{c} = \frac{5}{8} \ => \ \frac{3a}{c} = \frac{5}{8}[/tex]                  [tex][substituting \ b = 3a ][/tex]

                 [tex]\frac{a}{c} = \frac{5}{24}[/tex]

    [tex]=> a : c = 5 : 24[/tex]
