Correct Answer: 48: 37: 35


Solution : Answer = 48: 37: 35

N.P.S.R= B: C:D if A died.

B takes= $\frac{45}{120}×\frac{1}{3}$= $\frac{15}{120}$.
C takes= $\frac{45}{120}×\frac{1}{3}$= $\frac{15}{120}$.
D takes= $\frac{45}{160}×\frac{1}{3}$= $\frac{15}{120}$.

B= $\frac{33}{120}+\frac{15}{120}$= $\frac{48}{120}$
C= $\frac{22}{120}+\frac{15}{120}$= $\frac{37}{120}$
D= $\frac{20}{120}+\frac{15}{120}$= $\frac{35}{120}$

N.P.S.R= 48:37:35
Hence, the correct option is 1.
