Gopu 's share = \(\cfrac { 7 }{ 15 } \)
Share gained = Retiring partner's share x proportion of share gained
Ramu =\(\cfrac { 7 }{ 15 } \times \cfrac { 3 }{ 4 } =\cfrac { 21 }{ 60 } \)
Somu = \(\cfrac { 7 }{ 15 } \times \cfrac { 7 }{ 4 } =\cfrac { 7 }{ 60 } \)
Gaining ratio = \(\cfrac { 21 }{ 60 } :\cfrac { 7 }{ 60 } \) that is 3 : 1
New share of continuing partner = Old share + Share gained
Ramu = \(\cfrac { 3 }{ 15 } +\cfrac { 21 }{ 60 } =\cfrac { 12 }{ 21 } =\cfrac { 33 }{ 60 } =\cfrac { 11 }{ 20 } \)
Somu = \(\cfrac { 5 }{ 15 } +\cfrac { 7 }{ 60 } =\cfrac { 20+7 }{ 60 } =\cfrac { 27 }{ 60 } =\cfrac { 9 }{ 20 } \)
The new ratio of Ramu and Somu is \(\cfrac { 11 }{ 20 } :\cfrac { 9 }{ 20 } \) that is 11 : 9
3.

The share gained is calculated as follows:
Share gained = New share - Old share
Gaining ratio = Ratio of share gained bythe continuing partners.
4.
5.
Rohit's share \(\frac{2}{10}\)
Share gained = Retiring partner’s share × Proportion of share gained
Rahul = \(\frac{2}{10}\times\frac{3}{5}=\frac{6}{50}\)
Ravi = \(\frac{2}{10}\times\frac{2}{5}=\frac{4}{50}\)
Gaining ratio \(\frac{6}{50}:\frac{4}{50}\) that is, 3 : 2
New share of continuing partners = Old share + Share gained
Rahul \(=\frac{5}{10}+\frac{6}{50}=\frac{25+6}{50}=\frac{31}{50}\)
Ravi \(=\frac{3}{10}+{4}{50}=\frac{15+4}{50}=\frac{19}{50}\)
The new profit sharing ratio of Rahul and Ravi is \(\frac{31}{50}:\frac{19}{50}\) that is 31 : 19.
