A, B, and C started a business investing Rs. 50,000, Rs. 70,000, and Rs. 90,000, respectively. After 6 months, C withdrew half of his capital. At the end of the year, what is the ratio of their profits?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

A = 50,000 (12 months)

B = 70,000 (12 months)

C = 90,000 (6 months) + 45,000 (6 months)

A = 50,000 × 12 = 600,000

B = 70,000 × 12 = 840,000

C = 90,000 × 6 + 45,000 × 6 = 810,000

Ratio = 600,000 : 840,000 : 810,000 = 60 : 84 : 81 = 20 : 28 : 27
