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
