Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

Old ratio of Mohan = 618\frac{6}{18}, Roy = 418\frac{4}{18}. New ratio Mohan = 1016\frac{10}{16}, Roy = 616\frac{6}{16}.

Gain of Mohan = 1016−618=90−48144=42144\frac{10}{16} - \frac{6}{18} = \frac{90 - 48}{144} = \frac{42}{144}

Gain of Roy = 616−418=54−32144=22144\frac{6}{16} - \frac{4}{18} = \frac{54 - 32}{144} = \frac{22}{144}

Gaining ratio = 42 : 22 = 21 : 11.

The answer matches Option (1) 21:11
