Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option 1 - 21:11.
Old ratio = 4:3:2 (Rana, Sana and Kamana)
Rana retires
New ratio = 5:3 (Sana and Kamana)
Gaining share = New share - old share
Gain of Sana = 5/8 - 3/9
= (45-24) / 72
= 21/72
Gain of Kamana = 3/8 - 2/9
= (27-16) / 72
= 11/72
Gaining ratio = 21/72 : 11/72
= 21:11
