Solution:-

⠀

➖Let their Salaries be,➖

→ 2x, 3x and 5x respectively,

⠀

➖Now,➖

➡15% of Salary of A = 15/100 × 2x = 0.3x

So, 15% increment in Salary of A,

=> 2x + 0.3x = 2.3x

⠀

➖Similarly,➖

➡10% of Salary of B = 10/100 × 3x = 0.33x

So, 10% increment in Salary of B,

=> 3x + 0.33x = 3.33x

⠀

➖And,➖

➡20% of Salary of C = 20/100 × 5x = 1x

So, 20% increment in Salary of C,

=> 5x + 1x = 6x

⠀

➖Therefore,➖

➡New Ratio of their Salaries will be,

=> 2.3 : 3.3 : 6
