A and B share profits in (2:1). C is admitted for (1/6) share and the remaining profit will be shared by A and B in old ratio. What is the new ratio?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: A B C (10:5:3)

Direct answer: The new ratio is A:B:C = 10:5:3, so option A is correct. C receives \(1/6\), leaving \(1-1/6=5/6\) for A and B together. They must divide this remainder in their old ratio 2:1. Thus A receives \(5/6×2/3=10/18\), and B receives \(5/6×1/3=5/18\). C receives \(1/6=3/18\). Therefore the ratio is 10:5:3. Option A is correct. Option B wrongly keeps the old numbers and gives C one whole part without adjusting the total. Option C gives A and B the wrong scaled shares. Option D makes A and B equal, contrary to the old ratio. Memory cue: first subtract the incoming partner's share from one, then distribute the remainder in the old ratio.
