Reconstitution of Partnership Firm: Retirement and Death

Question:
The old ratio of the partners A ,B and C was 4:3:2. After changing their ratios , A and B are gaining 4/72 and 3/72 respectively, whereas C is sacrificing 7/72. What is their new ratio?
Options:
9:27:36
36:09:27
4:03:01
4:03:02
Correct Answer:
4:03:01
Explanation:
"S.R = Old - New
New = Old - S.R
or New = Old + Gaining Ratio
A- 4/72 + 4/9 = 4+32 /72 = 36/72
B - 3/72 + 3/9 = 3+24 /72 = 27/ 72
C - 2/9 - 7/72 = 16-7 /72 = 9/72
36 : 27 : 9 = 4: 3:1"
