Ram and Shyam share 3:2 and admit Ghanshyam. Ram sacrifices 1/4 of his share and Shyam 1/3 of his. The new ratio Ram:Shyam:Ghanshyam is

A9:6:5
B3:2:1
C12:8:5
D27:16:17
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. 27:16:17
Ram sacrifices 3/5 × 1/4 = 3/20; new share = 3/5 − 3/20 = 9/20. Shyam sacrifices 2/5 × 1/3 = 2/15; new share = 2/5 − 2/15 = 4/15. Ghanshyam = 3/20 + 2/15 = 17/60. LCM 60: 27:16:17.
