A B C actual ratio = 1/2:1/3:1/4 = (6+4+3)/12 = 6:4:3


Ratio in which it was divided = 2:3:4


Original ratio A:B:C = 6:4:3

Ratio in which it was divided A:B:C = 2:3:4


We can see both A and B have lost but C has gained the most.

Value of C in the divided ratio is 4/9 * 117 = 52


Value of C in the original ratio is 3/13 * 117 = 27


C gained 52 - 27 = 25
