Solution

The correct option is B
2:1

The existing ratio between Sumit and Punit= 2/6 and 1/6

Amit’s ratio (retiring partner) = 3/6

Amit’s share taken by Sumit and Punit in the ratio of 2:1

Sumit gets = 3/6 * 2/3 = 6/18

Punit gets = 3/6 * 1/3 = 3/18

New ratio between Sumit and Punit is = 6:3 = 2:1
