The new ratio of ownership once the business was owned by only Andrea and Lindsay is 8 : 7

a. How much did Andrea pay Dina for her share of the partnership?

The ratio is given as:

Andrea : Dina : Lindsay = 7 : 9 : 14

The partnership worth is given as

Worth = $1,800,000

The amount received by Dina is:

Dina = Dina Ratio/Total Ratio * Worth

So, we have

Dina = 9/(7 + 9 + 14) * 1800000

Evaluate

Dina = 540000

Hence, Andrea pays Dina $540,000 for her share of the partnership

What percent of the business did Andrea own after she bought out Dina?

Initially, we have:

Andrea : Dina : Lindsay = 7 : 9 : 14

So, the new ratio is

Andrea : Lindsay = (7 + 9) : 14

Evaluate

Andrea : Lindsay = 16 : 14

As a percentage, we have

Andrea = 16/(16 + 14) * 100%

This gives

Andrea = 53.33%

Hence, Andrea owns 53.33% of the business after she bought out Dina

What was the new ratio of ownership once the business was owned by only Andrea and Lindsay?

In (b), we have:

Andrea : Lindsay = 16 : 14

Simplify

Andrea : Lindsay = 8 : 7

Hence, the new ratio of ownership once the business was owned by only Andrea and Lindsay is 8 : 7
