Dividend among three shareholders P : R : S was in ratio of 3 : 2 : 7 after 3 years the ratio is observed to be 1/3 : 1/2 : 1/7 now if amount of dividend remains the same then find out which share holder is incurring loss in comparison to year 1. Let total dividend be INR 492 Correct Answer S

Now,

⇒ P = (3/12) × 492 = 123,

⇒ R = (2/12) × 492 = 82,

⇒ S = (7/12) × 492 = 287

Now after 3 Years P : R : S = (1/3) : (1/2) : (1/7) = 14 : 21 : 6

Here, P = (14/41) × 492 = 168, R = (21/41) × 492 = 252, S = (6/41) × 492 = 72

(note, 3 Years ratios were already in fraction hence they were first converted into whole numbers)

∴ Comparing values of year 1, 2 and 3 only s incurs loss in year 3.
