    Explanation: A:B:C's investment's ratio = 2000:4000:6000 = 2:4:6 = 1:2:3 Profit share = 1 : 2 : 3 B's profit share = Rs.600 2 parts = Rs.600 1 Part = Rs.300 A's profit share = Rs.300 C's profit share = Rs.900A's profit share + C's profit share = 300+900 = Rs.1200

    Explanation:

    A:B:C’s investment’s ratio = 2000:4000:6000 = 2:4:6 = 1:2:3

    Profit share = 1 : 2 : 3

    B’s profit share = Rs.600

    2 parts = Rs.600

    1 Part = Rs.300

    A’s profit share = Rs.300

    C’s profit share = Rs.900A’s profit share + C’s profit share = 300+900 = Rs.1200

    Explanation: A's investment Rs.6000 B's investment Rs.9000 C's investment Rs.12000 A : B : C's investment ratio = 6000 : 9000 : 12000 = 6 : 9 : 12 = 2 : 3 : 4 Hence profit Rs.3600 is to be divided in the ratio 2 : 3 : 4 A/'s profit = 3600× 2\9=Rs.800 B/s profit = 3600× 3\9=Rs.1200 C's profit = 3600×Read more

    Explanation:

    A’s investment Rs.6000

    B’s investment Rs.9000

    C’s investment Rs.12000

    A : B : C’s investment ratio = 6000 : 9000 : 12000 = 6 : 9 : 12 = 2 : 3 : 4

    Hence profit Rs.3600 is to be divided in the ratio 2 : 3 : 4

    A/’s profit = 3600× 2\9=Rs.800

    B/s profit = 3600× 3\9=Rs.1200

    C’s profit = 3600× 4\9=Rs.1600

    Explanation: A : B : C => 5 : 6 : 4 Now A-(B + C) = 200 30\100 (15x) + 5\15 × 70\100 15x−70\100 ×15x=200 45\10 x+35\10 x−70\10 x=200 => 10x = 2000, => x = 200 Hence total profit = 200X15 = RS. 3000

    Explanation:

    A : B : C => 5 : 6 : 4

    Now A-(B + C) = 200

    30\100 (15x) + 5\15 × 70\100 15x−70\100 ×15x=200

    45\10 x+35\10 x−70\10 x=200

    => 10x = 2000,

    => x = 200

    Hence total profit = 200X15

    = RS. 3000

    Explanation: Total profit = x Salary = 25/100 x = 1/4 x Profit to be distributed is 3/4 of x in ratio 3 : 4 : 5. A = 15/100x+ 3/12 X 3/4x 540 = 60x+75x/400 => x = 1600 B's share = 160+4/12 X 1200 = RS. 560 and C's share =5/12 X 1200 = RS. 500

    Explanation:

    Total profit = x

    Salary = 25/100 x = 1/4 x

    Profit to be distributed is 3/4 of x in ratio 3 : 4 : 5.

    A = 15/100x+ 3/12 X 3/4x

    540 = 60x+75x/400

    => x = 1600

    B’s share = 160+4/12 X 1200

    = RS. 560

    and C’s share =5/12 X 1200

    = RS. 500
