Question

Amar and Bahadur are partners in a firm sharing profits in the ratio of 3 : 2. They admitted Marry as a new partner for 1/4th share. The new profit-sharing ratio between Amar and Bahadur will be 2 1. Calculate their sacrificing ratio ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Bahadur sacrificed 1/15th share.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sacrificing ration = old ratio - new ratio

• Amar's part = $\frac{3}{5} - \frac{2}{3} = \frac{9-10}{15}$ = $\frac{-1}{15}$           (gained)

• Bahadur's part = $\frac{2}{5} - \frac{1}{3} = \frac{6-5}{15} = \frac{1}{15}$

Therefore, only Bahadur sacrificed, whereas Amar gained.
