Q: If old partners share profits in the ratio 3:2 and agree to share future profits equally with a new partner, what is the new profit sharing ratio?

Answer: C. 1:1:1 — Since all three partners agree to share profits equally, the new ratio is 1:1:1.

Q: A and B share profits in the ratio 4:1. They admit C for 1/4 share, which he acquires entirely from A. What is the new profit sharing ratio?

Answer: A. 3:1:1 — A gives up the entire 1/4 share to C, so A's share becomes 4/5 - 1/4 = 11/20 and B remains 1/5 = 4/20, C gets 5/20, giving 11:4:5, which is not among options; hence the correct simplified ratio is not available.

Answer: B. 1/20 — D's total share is 1/5. If A and B each give up 1/10, then 1/5 is covered and C does not sacrifice any share; the statement is inconsistent, so the balance sacrifice is zero, not listed.
