A B and C share in 2:2:6. C retires and A B take his share in old mutual ratio. What will be the new ratio?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 1:1

The direct answer is A, 1:1. The old ratio is A:B:C=2:2:6. A and B’s old mutual ratio is 2:2, which simplifies to 1:1. C’s share is 6/10. When A and B acquire this share in their old mutual ratio, they divide it equally. A therefore receives 3/10 extra and B also receives 3/10 extra. Their new shares are A=2/10+3/10=5/10 and B=2/10+3/10=5/10. Thus the new ratio is 5:5, or 1:1. Option A is correct. Option B is an unsimplified form of the old mutual ratio, not the usual simplest answer. Option C includes the retiring partner and is not the new ratio. Option D is equivalent to 1:1 but is not the standard simplest expression offered by the question. Reduce ratios to lowest terms.
