A, B and C are partners sharing profits in the ratio of 1/4 : 3/10 : 9/20. The New ratio on the retirement of C will be :

6 : 5

5 : 6

4 : 3

4 : 10

- A, B, and C share profits in the ratio of 1/4 : 3/10 : 9/20.

- Let's convert these fractions to a common denominator for clarity.

- 1/4 = 5/20

- 3/10 = 6/20

- 9/20 = 9/20

- Their profit-sharing ratio is 5:6:9.

- When C retires, his share is redistributed between A and B in their existing ratios.

- The combined share of A and B is 5+6 = 11 parts.

- Therefore, new ratio = A:B = 5:6.

Your revised question about the options:

- Option 1: 6:5 (Incorrect, reversed ratio).

- Option 2: 5:6 (Correct).

- Option 3: 4:3 (Incorrect, does not match calculations).

- Option 4: 4:10 (Incorrect, does not match calculations).

Correct Answer: Option 2 - 5:6
