The temperatures of equal masses of three different liquids $A, B$ and $C$ are $15^{\circ} C, 24^{\circ} C$ and $30^{\circ} C$ respectively. The resultant temperature when liquids $A$ and $B$ are mixed is $20^{\circ} C$ and when liquids $B$ and $C$ are mixed is $26^{\circ} C$. Then the ratio of specific heat capacities of the liquids $A, B$ and $C$ is

  • A
    $5: 8: 10$
  • B
    $8: 10: 5$
  • C
    $5: 10: 8$
  • D
    $8: 5: 10$
