A, B, and C started a business by investing ₹2000, ₹3000, and ₹4000 respectively. If the total profit at the end of the year was ₹1800, what is B's share of the profit?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Given:
A's investment = ₹2,000
B's investment = ₹3,000
C's investment = ₹4,000
Total profit = ₹1,800
A : B : C = 2,000 : 3,000 : 4,000 = 2 : 3 : 4
Total share = 2 + 3 + 4 = 9
B's share = (3 / 9) × 1,800 = ₹600
