Old ratio of A and B = 1 : 1 or A’s sacrifice = B’s sacrifice = Sacrificing ratio of A and B = = 5 : 4 C’s share = A’s share + B’s share A’s new share = Old ratio – Sacrifice ratio = B’s new share = Old ratio – Sacrifice ratio = Therefore, New ratio of A, B and C = = 15 : 16 : 9 (Making denominator equal)
