Question

A&B are partners profit share 3:2. they admit C and A surrender 1/3 of his share and B surrender 1/5 of his share in favour of C. calculate new ratio​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Correct option is D)

Old ratio (A and B) = 3 : 2

Sacrificing ratio = Old ratio * surrender ratio

A's sacrifice = (3/5) * (1/3) = 1/5

B's sacrifice = (2/5) * (1/10) = 1/25

New ratio = Old ratio - sacrificing ratio

A's new ratio = (3/5) - (1/5) = 2/5

B's new ratio = (2/5) - (1/25) = 9/25

C's share = A's sacrifice + B's sacrifice

= (1/5) + (1/25)

= 6/25

New profit sharing ratio = A : B : C

= 2/5 : 9/25 : 6/25

= 10 : 9 : 6
