in the ratio 1/2 : 1/3 : 1/4​

Answer 1

Answer:

Hi mate Here's your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the angles be 1/2x, 1/3x, 1/4x.

Total = 11,700

so 1/2x+1/3x+1/4x = 11,700

6+4+3/12x = 11,700

13/12x = 11,700

1/12x = 900

= 6:4:3

Thus, A would have got

×117=54

B would have got

6+4+3

4

×117=36

And C would have got

6+4+3

3

×117=27

Instead Rs. 117 have been divided in the ratio of 2:3:4

A gets

2+3+4

2

×117=26

B gets

2+3+4

3

×117=39

C gets

2+3+4

4

×117=52

Thus, by changing the ratio,

A gained 26−54 = -28

B gained 39−36 = 3

And C gained 52−27=25

Thus, C's gain of 25 is the most.
