P and Q are partners sharing profits in the ratio of 3 : 2. They admit R into partnership who acquires 1/5th of his share from P and 4/25th share from Q. Caluclate New Profit-sharing Ratio and Sacrificing Ratio.

Answer

New Profit-sharing Ratio P,Q and P R-14 : 6 : 5; Sacrificing Ratio of P and Q -1 : 4.

Explanation

Since R acquires 1/5th of his share from P, it means he acquires 4/5th (i.e., 1-1//5) of his share from Q.
if 4/5th of R's share =4/25 (Received from Q)
R's share `=4//25xx5//4=1//5`
Share Acquired by R: from `P=1//5xxx1//5=1//5=1//25,"from"Q=4//25`.
