$\red{ \underline{ \underline{\textsf{Ratio before admitting Ramesh : }}}}$

Dinesh : Mahesh = 3 : 2

• Dinesh's Share = 3/5

• Mahesh's Share = 2/5

$\red{ \underline{ \underline{\textsf{Ratio after admitting Ramesh : }}}}$

Dinesh : Mahesh : Ramesh = 5 : 4 : 3

• Dinesh's Share = 5/12

• Mahesh's Share = 4/12

• Ramesh's Share = 3/12

Dinesh's Sacrifice : Mahesh's Sacrifice

= 11/60 : 4/60

= 11 : 4
