Mohan and Sohan share profits in the ratio 4:5. Rohan is admitted for a 2/9 share. Mohan and Sohan will share the balance in the ratio 5:2. What is Sohan’s sacrifice?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 1/3

Sacrifice is governed by the rule: old share minus new share. Sohan’s old share under the ratio 4:5 was 5/(4+5) = 5/9. Rohan receives 2/9, leaving 1 − 2/9 = 7/9 for Mohan and Sohan. This balance is divided in their new ratio 5:2, whose total is 7. Sohan therefore receives (7/9) × (2/7) = 2/9 as his new share. His sacrifice is 5/9 − 2/9 = 3/9 = 1/3. Thus option A is correct. Option B is only Sohan’s new share, option C does not represent the difference between old and new shares, and option D is his old share rather than his sacrifice.
