A B C D share profits in 2:2:3:3. C retires and A B D's new ratio is 3:2:5. What is the gaining ratio?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 1:0:2

The direct answer is A, 1:0:2. The old ratio A:B:C:D is 2:2:3:3, whose total is 10. Therefore old shares are A=2/10, B=2/10, and D=3/10. C retires, and the new ratio A:B:D is 3:2:5, also totaling 10. Thus new shares are A=3/10, B=2/10, and D=5/10. Calculate gains by subtracting old share from new share: A gains 3/10−2/10=1/10; B gains 2/10−2/10=0; D gains 5/10−3/10=2/10. The common denominator is removed, giving 1:0:2. Option A is correct. Option B merely repeats the new ratio, not the gains. Option C gives old ratio parts and includes the retiring partner, so it is unsuitable. Option D assumes equal gains, which the calculation disproves. Use the sequence: write old shares, write new shares, subtract, then simplify.
