A and B share profits in the ratio 7:5. C is admitted for a 1/8 share, and the new ratio is 4:3:1. What is the sacrificing ratio of A and B?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 2:1

The relevant rule is that each old partner’s sacrifice equals old share minus new share. The old ratio 7:5 gives A an old share of 7/12 and B an old share of 5/12. The new ratio 4:3:1 totals eight parts, so A receives 4/8 = 1/2 and B receives 3/8. A’s sacrifice is therefore 7/12 − 1/2 = 7/12 − 6/12 = 1/12. B’s sacrifice is 5/12 − 3/8 = 10/24 − 9/24 = 1/24. Thus the ratio is 1/12 : 1/24 = 2:1, so option A is correct. The old ratio 7:5 and the new ratio 4:3:1 describe allocations, not the amount surrendered by each partner.
