Question

Niyati and Aisha were partners in a firm sharing profits and losses in the ratio of 4:3. They admitted Bina as a new partner. Niyati sacrificed 1/4th from her share and Aisha sacrificed 1/7th from her share in favour of Bina. Bina's share in the profits of the firm will be:
11/28 or 10/49 ?

i m getting answer as 11/28.
but the book says is 10/49
i think book is wrong as its from their share not of their share​

Answer 1

"11/28"

Explanation:

Niyati's old share = 4/7; sacrifice in favor of Bina = 1/4

Niyati's new share = 4/7 - 1/4 = 16-7/28 = 9/28

Aisha's old ratio = 3/7; sacrifice in favor of Bina = 1/7

Aisha's new share = 3/7 - 1/7 = 2/7 i.e. 8/28

Bina share = 1/4 + 1/7 = 11/28

New profit sharing ratio = 9 : 8 : 11,

Maybe the answer in your textbook might be wrong

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is 11/28

Explanation:

As Bina gets 1/4 from niyati and 1/7 from aisha,

Bina's share= 1/4 + 1/7

 = 11/28
