abstract="A measurement of four branching-fraction ratios for three-body decays of B mesons involving two open-charm hadrons in the final state is presented. Run 1 and Run 2 pp collision data are used, recorded by the LHCb experiment at centre-of-mass energies 7, 8, and 13 TeV and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb(-1). The measured branching-fraction ratios are<disp-formula id={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}Equa{\textquoteright}{\textquoteright}><mml:mtable displaystyle={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}true{\textquoteright}{\textquoteright}><mml:mtr><mml:mtd><mml:mfrac>B<mml:mfenced close={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}){\textquoteright}{\textquoteright} open={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}({\textquoteright}{\textquoteright}>B+-> D+D-K+</mml:mfenced>B<mml:mfenced close={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}){\textquoteright}{\textquoteright} open={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}({\textquoteright}{\textquoteright}>B+-> D<overbar></mml:mover>0D0K+</mml:mfenced></mml:mfrac>=0.5170.0150.013 +/- 0.011,</mml:mtd></mml:mtr><mml:mtr><mml:mtd><mml:mfrac>B<mml:mfenced close={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}){\textquoteright}{\textquoteright} open={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}({\textquoteright}{\textquoteright}>B+-> D-D+K+</mml:mfenced>B<mml:mfenced close={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}){\textquoteright}{\textquoteright} open={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}({\textquoteright}{\textquoteright}>B+-> D<overbar></mml:mover>0D0K+</mml:mfenced></mml:mfrac>=0.577 +/- 0.016 +/- 0.013 +/- 0.013,</mml:mtd></mml:mtr><mml:mtr><mml:mtd><mml:mtable><mml:mtr><mml:mtd><mml:mfrac>B<mml:mfenced close={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}){\textquoteright}{\textquoteright} open={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}({\textquoteright}{\textquoteright}>B0 -> D-D0K+</mml:mfenced>B<mml:mfenced close={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}){\textquoteright}{\textquoteright} open={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}({\textquoteright}{\textquoteright}>B0 -> D-D0K+</mml:mfenced></mml:mfrac>=1.754 +/- 0.028 +/- 0.016 +/- 0.035,</mml:mtd></mml:mtr><mml:mtr><mml:mtd><mml:mfrac>B<mml:mfenced close={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}){\textquoteright}{\textquoteright} open={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}({\textquoteright}{\textquoteright}>B+-> D+D-K+</mml:mfenced>B<mml:mfenced close={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}){\textquoteright}{\textquoteright} open={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}({\textquoteright}{\textquoteright}>B+-> D-D+K+</mml:mfenced></mml:mfrac>=0.907 +/- 0.033<mml:mo>+/- 0.014<mml:mo>,</mml:mtd></mml:mtr></mml:mtable></mml:mtd></mml:mtr></mml:mtable><graphic position={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}anchor{\textquoteright}{\textquoteright} xmlns:xlink={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink{\textquoteright}{\textquoteright} xlink:href={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}13130{\textit{}2020{}}14428{\textit{}Article{}}Equa.gif{\textquoteright}{\textquoteright}></graphic></disp-formula><p id={\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}Par2{\textquoteright}{\textquoteright}>where the first of the uncertainties is statistical, the second systematic, and the third is due to the uncertainties on the D-meson branching fractions.
