    Given that the ratios between 3 numbers is 6:5:1 and the difference between the largest and the smallest number is 30, then the numbers will be as follows:

    difference in ratio between large and smallest number is:

    6-5=5

    thus:

    largest number=6/5*30=36

    medium number=5/5*30=30

    smallest number=1/5*30=6

    Answer: B. 36, 30, 6
