Let us consider 2:3:4 = 2x:3x:4x
THEN, add this :-) 2x+3x+4x = 117
9x = 117
x = 117/9
So, x = 13
Now, put the values of x:-) i.e.,
= 2 ✖ 13 + 3 ✖ 13 + 4 ✖ 13
= 26 + 39 + 42. We want this: = 117
It means that :-) A = 26 , B = 39 , C = 42 .
ANS... IS :-) C gains the most i.e., 42 .
... B gains more by A by 13 .
... C gains more by 13 by B and by
26 by A.
Hope this will help u

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
It is divided in ratio 2:3:4
So let,
2x+3x+4x=117
9x=117
x=13
So because of A=2x
Value of A=2*13=26
Same as value of B=3*13=39
And valie of C=4*13=52
So, C gained the most and and 13 by B and 26 by A
