A and B share profits in (4:3). C is admitted for (2/7) share. If A and B share the remaining profit equally then what will be the new ratio?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: A B C (5:5:4)

Direct answer: The new ratio is A:B:C = 5:5:4, so option A is correct. C receives \(2/7\), so A and B together retain \(1−2/7=5/7\). The question says they share this remainder equally, so A gets \(5/14\) and B also gets \(5/14\). C's share is \(2/7=4/14\). Thus the common-denominator shares are 5/14, 5/14, and 4/14, giving 5:5:4. Option A is correct. Option B wrongly continues the old ratio 4:3, although the question expressly says the remainder is equal. Option C has equal old-partner numbers but incorrectly doubles the new partner's share. Option D gives C 2/14 instead of 4/14. Read the condition about equal sharing carefully.
