Correct Answer: H Gain 3/30, O Sacrifice 2/30, D sacrifice 1/30


Solution : Answer = H Gain 3/30, O Sacrifice 2/30, D sacrifice 1/30

Sacrificing ratio = old ratio - new ratio

H = 2/5 - 3/6 = 12 - 15/ 30 = -3/30 (gain)

O = 2/5 - 2/6 = 12- 10/30 = 2/30 (sacrifice)

D = 1/5 - 1/6 = 6- 5/30 = 1/30 (sacrifice)
Hence, the correct option is 1.
