The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Determine total capital after Veena’s retirement.
The total capital after Veena’s retirement should be ₹ 5,00,000 (i.e., ₹ 2,00,000 + ₹ 1,20,000 + ₹ 1,80,000). This includes the amount to be paid to Veena. Step 2: Divide ₹ 5,00,000 in new ratio 3:2.
\[ \text{Ashmit's new capital} = \frac{3}{5} \times 5,00,000 = ₹ 3,00,000 \] \[ \text{Rohan's new capital} = \frac{2}{5} \times 5,00,000 = ₹ 2,00,000 \] Final Answer: Ashmit ₹ 3,00,000 and Rohan ₹ 2,00,000.
