A and B share profits in the ratio 9:8. C gets a 2/17 share only from A. What will be B’s new share?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 8/17

The governing concept is source-specific sacrifice: when the incoming partner’s share is taken entirely from one old partner, the other old partner’s share does not change. The old ratio 9:8 has total 17, so A’s original share is 9/17 and B’s original share is 8/17. C receives 2/17 from A alone, reducing A to 7/17. B makes no sacrifice and therefore continues to receive 8/17. Hence option A is correct. Option C confuses B’s share with A’s original share; option D is C’s incoming share, and option B has no basis because nothing is deducted from B.
