A, B, and C invest in the ratio 2:3:5. If the total profit is ₹10,000, find B’s share.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Given:
A : B : C = 2 : 3 : 5
Total profit = 10,000
Formula:
A person's share = (his ratio / total ratio) × total profit
Total ratio = 2 + 3 + 5 = 10
B's share = (3 / 10) × 10,000 = 3,000
