Question

$A$ and $B$ are partners sharing profits in the ratio of $3:2$. $C$ is admitted as a partner. The new profit-sharing ratio among $A,B$ and $C$ is $4:3:2$. Find out the sacrificing ratio.

Answer 1

A's old share= 3/5

B's old share= 2/5

C is admitted as a partner

New Ratio among partners is 4:3:2

Sacrificing ratio= old ratio- new ratio

A's sacrifice= 3/5- 4/9

= 7/45

B's sacrifice= 2/5- 3/9

= 3/45

Sacrificing ratio= 7:3
