A, B and C invested their capitals in the ratio 2 : 3 : 5. The ratio of months for which they invested is 4 : 2 : 3, respectively. If the difference between the profit shares of A and B is Rs 1,86,000, then C's share of profit (in Rs) is:
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 13,95,000
One knows that,
Profit share = Amount Invested × Time period.
The ratio of the profit share of A, B and C is,
A : B : C = 2x × 4y : 3x × 2y : 5x × 3y
A : B : C = 8xy : 6xy : 15xy
According to the question,
8xy - 6xy = 186000
2xy = 186000
xy = 93000
C's profit share = 15xy
= 15 × 93000 = 13,95,000.
