Answer:

6:1:2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a = Able's score, b = Ben's score, and c = Cal's score.

Since

Able's score was 6 times Ben's score, that means a = 6b.

Cal's score was a third of Able's score, so that means c = a/3. And since a = 6b, that means c = 6b / 3 = 2b.

Thus, the ratio of Able's score to Ben's score to Cal's score, a:b:c, is 6:1:2, because c is twice as much as b and a is 6 times as much as b.
