A B and C share profits in 2:3:4. C dies and A B take his share in 1:2. What will be the new ratio?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 10:17

The direct answer is 10:17, so option A is correct. The old total ratio is 2+3+4=9. Therefore A has 2/9, B has 3/9, and C has 4/9. C’s share is taken by A and B in the ratio 1:2. Divide 4/9 into three equal parts: each part is 4/27. A receives one part, 4/27, and B receives two parts, 8/27. Convert the old shares to denominator 27: A’s old share is 2/9=6/27, and B’s old share is 3/9=9/27. New A share = 6/27+4/27=10/27. New B share = 9/27+8/27=17/27. Hence the new ratio is 10:17. Option A is correct. Options B, 3:5, and C, 2:3, merely repeat or alter the old relationship and do not include C’s transferred share. Option D, 1:2, is only the takeover ratio, not the final ratio. Remember: first calculate the deceased partner’s share, then distribute it.
