Solution

The correct option is C
4:3:3

Old ratio between A:B:C = 5:4:1.

C acquires 1/5th Share from A & B equally

B’s sacrifice= 1/5 X 1/2 = 1/10
A’s sacrifice= 1/5 X 1/2 = 1/10

C`s gain= 1/5

A = 5/10 -1/10 = 4/10

B = 4/10 - 1/10 = 3/10

C= 1/10 + 1/5 = 3/10

A:B:C = 4:3:3

4:3:3

Old ratio between A:B:C = 5:4:1.

C acquires 1/5th Share from A & B equally

B’s sacrifice= 1/5 X 1/2 = 1/10
A’s sacrifice= 1/5 X 1/2 = 1/10

C`s gain= 1/5

A = 5/10 -1/10 = 4/10
