Question

A and B are partners sharing profits in the
ratio of 4:3. They admitted C as a new partner
who gets 1/7th share of profit, entirely from A.
The new profit-sharing ratio will be : *

Answer 1

Given :

• Old ratio of partners = 4:3

• Share of new partner = ⅐ (entirely from A)

To find :

• New ratio of partners

Solution :

We know that , the share of C is entirely from A (⅐)

So, New Share of A ;

= Old Ratio of A - Share Of C

$\sf \: = \frac{4}{7} - \frac{1}{7} \\ \\\bf = \frac{3}{7}$

New Share of A = $\sf \large \frac{3}{7}$

New Ratio of B = $\sf \large \: \frac{3}{7}$

New Ratio of C = $\sf \large\frac{1}{7}$

$\to\sf \frac{3}{7}: \frac{3}{7}: \frac{1}{7}$

$\to \bf \: 3 : 3 : 1$

New Profit Sharing Ratio = 3 : 3 : 1

Answer 2

Answer:

A=4/7-1/7==3/7

B=3/7

C=1/7

New profit sharing ratio=3:3:1
