From the old ratio 3:2, a new partner takes a 1/5 share in the old ratio. What is the sacrifice of the first old partner?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 3/25

The governing rule is that, when an incoming partner takes a share in the old ratio, each old partner sacrifices the incoming share in proportion to that partner’s old share. The total old ratio is 3+2=5, so the first partner’s proportion is 3/5. The new partner receives 1/5, and the first partner’s sacrifice is therefore 1/5 × 3/5 = 3/25. Hence option A is correct. Option B uses the second partner’s proportion, 2/5, rather than the first partner’s 3/5. Option C treats the entire incoming share as the first partner’s sacrifice, while option D states the first partner’s old share instead of the amount surrendered.
