Question 01 Chapter 6 of +2-A
01. A, B and C were partners sharing profits in the ratio of 1/2, 2/5 and 1/10. Find the new ratio of the remaining partners if C retires.
| Old Ratio A, B and C | = | 1 | : | 2 | : | 1 |
| 2 | 5 | 10 | ||||
| = | 5 | : | 4 | : | 1 |
As we can see, no information is given as to how A and B are acquiring C's profit share after his retirement, so the new profit sharing ratio between A and B is calculated just by crossing out the C’s share. That is, the new ratio becomes 5 : 4.
∴ New Profit Ratio A and B = 5 : 4
