A and B share profits in the ratio 8:3. C is admitted for a 2/11 share of the profits, and the remaining profit is divided between A and B in their old ratio. What will be the new profit-sharing ratio?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 72:27:22

C receives 2/11 of the total profit, so the remaining share for A and B is 1 − 2/11 = 9/11. This balance is divided in the old ratio 8:3. Therefore, A’s share is (9/11) × (8/11) = 72/121, and B’s share is (9/11) × (3/11) = 27/121. C’s share, 2/11, is 22/121. Hence, the new profit-sharing ratio is 72:27:22. Option A is incorrect because C’s share cannot simply be appended to the old ratio. Exam tip: First subtract the admitted partner’s share from 1, then distribute the balance among the old partners in their old ratio.
