​

Answer 1

Answer:

Sacrifice ratio of Sushma and Sahana = 7 : 3.

Explanation:

Solution :

★ Old Ratio :

Sushma : Sahana = 3 : 2

• Sushma's Share = 3/5
• Sahana's Share = 2/5

They admit Sahasra into the partnership.

New profit sharing ratio is is 4 : 3 : 2

★ New profit sharing ratio =

Sushma : Sahana : Sahasra = 4 : 3 : 2

• Sushma's new share = 4/9
• Sahana's new share = 3/9
• Sahasra's share = 2/9

★ Sacrifice Ratio = Old Ratio - New Ratio

• Sushma's Sacrifice =

⇒ 3/5 - 4/9 = (27 - 20)/45

⇒ 7/45

• Sahana's Sacrifice =

⇒ 2/5 - 3/9 = (18 - 15)/45

⇒ 3/45

Sacrifice Ratio =

• Sushma : Sahana
• 7/45 : 3/45

⇒ 7 : 3

Therefore, Sacrifice ratio of Sushma and Sahana = 7 : 3.
