A and B share profits in (9:4). C gets (3/13) share from A and B in the sacrificing ratio (2:1). What is the new ratio?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (7:3:3)

Direct answer: Option A, 7:3:3, is correct. The old ratio A:B is 9:4, so their old shares are 9/13 and 4/13. C receives 3/13. The question says this is sacrificed by A and B in the ratio 2:1. Since the total sacrifice is 3/13, A sacrifices 2/13 and B sacrifices 1/13. A’s new share is 9/13 − 2/13 = 7/13. B’s new share is 4/13 − 1/13 = 3/13. C’s share remains 3/13. Removing the common denominator 13 gives 7:3:3. Option A matches this calculation. Option B simply repeats the old ratio and adds C without reducing A and B. Option C does not use either the old ratio or the stated sacrifice ratio. Option D doubles A’s and B’s old parts and is not a normalized ratio. Always divide a new partner’s share among sacrificing partners before subtracting.
