Correct Answer: (A) is wrong, but (R) is correct. 


Solution : Answer = (A) is wrong, but (R) is correct. 

While statement (A) is incorrect because it falsely claims that Reshem's profit share hasn't changed, statement (R) correctly explains that the profit share of the last partner remains unchanged when a new partner is admitted without affecting their share of profit in the partnership.
Hence, the correct option is 3.
