A and B start a business with ₹2000 and ₹3000 respectively. After 1 year, total profit is ₹1000. Find B’s share.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Given:

A's investment = 2000

B's investment = 3000

Total profit = 1000

Formula:

Profit ratio = Investment ratio

A : B = 2000 : 3000 = 2 : 3

Total ratio = 2 + 3 = 5

B's share = (3 / 5) × 1000 = 600
