A, B and C share profits in 8:5:3. B retires and A and C's new ratio is 3:2. What is C's gain?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 17/80

The governing rule is gain = new share − old share for each continuing partner. The old total is 8+5+3=16, so C’s old share is 3/16. After B retires, the new ratio A:C is 3:2, giving C a new share of 2/5. Convert to a common denominator: 2/5 = 32/80 and 3/16 = 15/80. Thus C’s gain is 32/80−15/80=17/80. Therefore option B is correct. Option C is C’s old share, option D is C’s new share, and option A is not the difference between the relevant fractions. As a check, A’s gain is 1/10=8/80, and the two gains together equal B’s former share of 5/16.
