If three friends A, B, and C shared their earnings in ratio 3 : 2 : 1 then what would be the ratio of earnings if B earned Rs. 15 more and kept it to himself. Assume initial total earnings to be Rs. 60. Correct Answer 6 : 7 : 2

A : B : C = 3 : 2 : 1

Hence, A = (3/6) × 60 = 30

B = (2/6) × 60 = 20

C = (1/6) × 60 = 10

Now,

⇒ B earned 15 more hence total earning of B = 20 + 15 =35

Now,

⇒ A : B : C = 30 : 35 : 10

Hence, A : B : C = 6 : 7 : 2
