Options:

11:21

21:11

31:12

23:13

Correct Answer:

21:11

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 2- 21:11.

Gaining share = New share - old share

Gain of Sandhya = 5/8 - 3/9
                           = (45-24) / 72
                           = 21/72

Gain of Kangana = 3/8 - 2/9
                           = (27-16) / 72
                           = 11/72

Gaining ratio = 21/72 : 11/72
                     = 21:11
