In the new profit sharing ratio (17:11:7), what are C's share and the combined share of old partners?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (7/35) and (28/35)

The direct answer is option B, 7/35 and 28/35. The ratio 17:11:7 has total parts 17 + 11 + 7 = 35. C is the partner represented by the last number, 7, so C’s share is 7/35, which simplifies to 1/5. The old partners are represented by 17 and 11, so their combined share is (17 + 11)/35 = 28/35, which simplifies to 4/5. Option B gives both required fractions exactly. Option A, 1/5 and 4/5, is mathematically equivalent, but it is not written in the ratio’s common denominator form; if only one answer is expected, B is the more exact listed form. Option C, 7/28 and 21/28, totals only 1 for a different division and does not use the given total parts correctly. Option D, 7/35 and 17/35, leaves out 11/35. Add all shares to check: 7/35 + 28/35 = 1.
