Answer» Ratio of profits will be the same as the ratio of the investments made. Given, A, B and C start a business each investing Rs. 20000. After 5 MONTHS A withdrew Rs. 6000 & B withdrew Rs. 5000 and C invested Rs. 5000 more. Total INVESTMENT made by A in a year = 20000 × 5 + 14000 × 7 = 198000 Total investment made by B in a year = 20000 × 5 + 15000 × 7 = 205000 Total investment made by C in a year = 20000 × 5 + 25000 × 7 = 275000 Ratio in which the investment were made = 198 : 205 : 275 Thus, ratio in which profits will be divided = 198 : 205 : 275 Total profit earned at the end of year = Rs. 33900 Share of B $(= \frac{{205}}{{198 + 205 + 275}} \times 33900)$ ⇒ Share of B $(= \frac{{205}}{{678}} \times 33900 = Rs.10250)$ |
