X retired and there is no information regarding the new profit sharing ratio between y and z is given. So, after striking of the retiring partner’s ratio, the remaining ratio will be new profit sharing ratio, i.e 3: 2
Hence, New profit sharing ratio of Y: Z = 3: 2
Gaining Ratio = New Profit Sharing Ratio – Old Profit Sharing Ratio
Y’s Gaining Ratio = 35−310=6−310=31035−310=6−310=310,
Z’s Gaining Raio = 25−210=4−210=21025−210=4−210=210

Now, Q’s share would be 38+28=5838+28=58
R’s share would be 18+28=3818+28=38
Thus, the new profit sharing ratio between Q and R would be 5 : 3. - Sarthak’s Capital Account
