Profit sharing

Three people A, B and C started a business by investing Rs. 250000 Rs. 300000 and Rs.350000 respectively. Find the share of B, out of an annual profit of Rs.187200.

Correct answer:

a =  52000 Rs
b =  62400 Rs
c =  72800 Rs

Step-by-step explanation:

$$\begin{gathered} A=250000\text{Rs} \\ B=300000\text{Rs} \\ C=350000\text{Rs} \\ p=187200\text{Rs} \\ a=p\cdot \frac{A}{A+B+C}=187200\cdot \frac{250000}{250000+300000+350000}=52000\text{Rs} \end{gathered}$$

$b=p\cdot \frac{B}{A+B+C}=187200\cdot \frac{300000}{250000+300000+350000}=62400\text{Rs}$

$c=p\cdot \frac{C}{A+B+C}=187200\cdot \frac{350000}{250000+300000+350000}=72800\text{Rs}$
