Team Careers360 · Accepted Answer

Correct Answer: 23 : 33 : 60

Solution : Salary of father = $2x$
Salary of mother = $3x$
Salary of daughter = $5x$
There is an increase in the salary, 15%, 10%, and 20% respectively,
Now,
Salary of father $=2x + \frac{15 imes 2x}{100} = \frac{230x}{100}$
Salary of mother $= 3x+\frac{10 imes 3x}{100} = \frac{330x}{100}$
Salary of daughter $=5x+\frac{20 imes5x}{100} = \frac{600x}{100}$
So, the required ratio = 230 : 330 : 600 = 23 : 33 : 60
Hence, the correct answer is 23 : 33 : 60.
