A, B and C start a business and the ratio of their investment is 8 : 5 : 3. If at the end the ratio of their profits is 4 : 15 : 6, then what is the ratio of time period of their investment?1). 1 : 6 : 52). 2 : 3 : 43). 1 : 6 : 44). 2 : 6 : 3

Answer»

We KNOW,

Profit = investment × time

⇒ Time = profit/investment

Given,

RATIO of their profit = 4 ? 15 ? 6

⇒ Ratio of their investment = 8 ? 5 ? 3

∴ Time = (4/8) : (15/5) : (6/3) = (1/2) : 3 : 2 = 1 : 6 : 4
