A and B share profits in the ratio 11:9. C is admitted for a 1/4 share of the total profit, and the remaining profit is shared between A and B in their old ratio. What will be the new profit-sharing ratio?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 33:27:20

C receives 1/4 of the total profit, so 3/4 remains for A and B. Since their old ratio is 11:9, its total is 20. Therefore, A’s new share is 3/4 × 11/20 = 33/80, B’s is 3/4 × 9/20 = 27/80, and C’s share is 1/4 = 20/80. Hence, the new ratio is 33:27:20. Option B is incorrect because it treats C’s share as though it could simply be added to the old ratio. Exam tip: Multiply each old partner’s fraction by the profit remaining after the new partner’s share is deducted.
