विकल्प
12 : 15
15 : 13
12 : 11
10 : 14
उत्तर
15 : 13
Explanation:
Old Ratio (Shiv, Mohan and Hari) = 5 : 5 : 4
Mohan's profit share = `5/14`
His share is divided between Shiv and Hari equally, i.e. in the ratio of 1 : 1.
Share of Mohan taken by shiv = `5/14 xx 1/2 = 5/28`
Share of Mohan taken by Hari = `5/14 xx 1/2 = 5/28`
New Profit Share = Old profit share + share taken from Mohan
Shiv's new share = `5/14 + 5/28 = 10/28 + 5/28 = 15/28`
Hari's new share = `4/14 + 5/28 = 8/28 + 5/28 = 13/28`
New Profit Share (Shiv and Hari) = 15 : 13
