OlD Ratio  = 2 : 3

New Partner Share 1/4th

Balance of One = 1 – New Partner Share

                            = 1 – 1/4th

                            = 3/4th

New Ratio = Old Ratio X Balance of 1

      Vikram = 2/5  x  3/4  = 6/20

    Pradnya =  3/5  x 3/4 = 9/20

         Avani = 1/4 x  5/5 = 5/20   (Making Denominator Equal)

New Ratio : 6 : 9 : 5
