Answer 1

Answer:

b) 1/12

Explanation:

Initially c was sharing 1/4th of the share

now he is sharing 1/6th of the share

sacrifising ratio= new - old

=1/4-1/6 =1/12

Answer 2

Explanation:

Solution :

★ Old Ratio :

A : B : C : D = 1 : 1 : 1 : 1

• A's share = 1/4
• B's share = 1/4
• C's share = 1/4
• D's share = 1/4

They change their profit sharing ratio to 2 : 2 : 1 : 1

★ New Profit Sharing Ratio :

A : B : C : D = 2 : 2 : 1 : 1

• A's new share = 2/6
• B's new share = 2/6
• C's new share = 1/6
• D's new share = 1/6

C's Sacrifice =

★ Sacrifice Ratio = Old Ratio - New Ratio

• C = 1/4 - 1/6

1/4 - 1/6

1/12

C's Sacrifice = 1/12

Therefore, Option (b)1/12

C will Sacrifice 1/12.
