Question:

The salaries of A,B and C are in ratio 2 : 3 : 4. If increments of 30%, 20% and 10% are allowed, respectively, in their salaries, then what will be the new ratio of their salaries?

Options:

22 : 11 : 18

18 : 13 : 22

13 : 18 : 22

22 : 18 : 13

Correct Answer:

13 : 18 : 22

Explanation:

                          A   :  B   :  C

Old salaries        2   :  3   :  4

New salaries    2x\(\frac{130}{100}\) : 3x\(\frac{120}{100}\)  : 4x\(\frac{110}{100}\)

                      26  :  36  :  44  = 13 : 18 : 22
