Answer 1

Answer:

Sara share = 1/4

out of 1/4 share 1/12 th share acquired from veena so veena sacrifice 1/12 th share

remaining share 1/4-1/12 = 2/12 share sacrifice by Soma

so sacrifice ratio is 1/12 :2/12= 1:2

option c is correct

Answer 2

Answer:

Option (c) 1:2

Explanation:

Solution :

Veena and Soma are partners in a firm.

They admit Sara on 1st April, 2020, for 1/4 share in the profits of the firm.

• Sara's share = 1/4

Sara acquired her share as 1/12 from Veena and the remaining from Soma.

• Veena sacrifice for Sara = 1/12

Sara's share = Veena's sacrifice share + Soma's sacrifice

• Sara's share = 1/4

1/4 - Veena's sacrifice share = remaining share of Sara or Soma's sacrifice share

⇒ 1/4 - 1/12

⇒ (3 - 1)/12

⇒ 2/12

Soma's sacrifice = 2/12

★ Sacrificing Ratio =

• Veena : Soma
• 1/12 : 2/12

⇒ 1 : 2

Therefore, Option (c) 1:2

The sacrificing ratio of the old partners will be (Veena : Soma) 1 : 2
