A, B and C invest in a business in the ratio 3 : 6 : 5. A and C are working partners. Only B is a sleeping partner hence his share will be 3/4th of what it would have been if he were a working partner. If they make Rs 50,000 profit, half of which is reinvested in the business and the other half is distributed between the partners, then how much does C get (in Rs)?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3, i.e. 10000

Ratio A : B : C = 3 : 6 : 5

Share of b = 8 × 3/4 = 6 × 3/4 = 9/2

New Ratio = 3 : 9/2 : 5 = 6 : 9 : 10

Total profit = Rs 50000

After reinvestment profit = Rs 25000

C's share = 10/25 × 25000 = 10000
