A and B share profits in the ratio 11:9. C is admitted into the partnership and receives \(\frac{1}{5}\) of the total profits. If A’s new profit share is \(\frac{2}{5}\), what will be B’s new profit share?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \(\frac{2}{5}\)

The total profit share is \(1\). A and C receive new shares of \(\frac{2}{5}\) and \(\frac{1}{5}\), respectively. Therefore, B’s new share is \(1-\frac{2}{5}-\frac{1}{5}=\frac{2}{5}\). The distractor \(\frac{3}{5}\) is impossible because A’s and B’s shares alone would then exceed the total profit after including C’s share. Exam tip: when the new shares of the other partners and the incoming partner are known, find the remaining partner’s share by subtracting them from 1.
