Choose the correct correction. A and B share profits in (6:5). C gets (2/11) share and A B share the balance in (4:3). What is B's sacrifice?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (8/77)

The old shares of A and B are 6/11 and 5/11. C receives 2/11, so the balance left for A and B is 9/11. This remaining profit is divided between A and B in the new ratio 4:3. Thus B’s new share is \\(9/11\\times3/7=27/77\\). To compare fairly, B’s old share becomes \\(5/11=35/77\\).

Sacrifice is calculated as old share minus new share. Therefore B sacrifices \\(35/77-27/77=8/77\\). This agrees with option A. The answer is not 16/77 because that would double the actual difference, and 2/11 is C’s share rather than B’s sacrifice. The ratio and the admission share must be handled separately.
