sacrifice of A & B Given To u ....That is 1/10 & 1/10 that means sacrifice ratio is 1:1........

New profit sharing ratio = Old - Sacrifice

A' s new share : 5/8-1/10=21/40

B' s new share : 3/8-1/10=11/40

C's new share: 1/10+1/10=2/10 or 1/5

New profit sharing ratio

21/40:11/40:1/5

21:11:8   Ans
