A and B are partners sharing profits and losses in the ratio 3:2. C is admitted for 1/4th share. A and B decide to share equally in future. Calculate new profit sharing ratio.

let total share=1; c's share=1/4 ;remaining share= 1-1/4=3/4  .sincea and b decided to share equally it means a's new share=1/2*34= 3/8 ; b's new share =1/2*3/4= 3/8.so new profit sharing ratio=3/8:3/8:1/4 = 3:3:2

let the profit of firm be 1 share of new partner=1/4 remaining share=1-1/4=3/4

A=3/5*3/4=9/20

B=2/5*3/4=6/20

C=1/4

np=9/20:6/20:1/4=9:6:5
