Best answer
Correct Answer - Option 1 : 26200

Given: A, B and C started a business investing Rs. 12000, 15000 and 10,000. After 5 months, A withdrew Rs. 4000, B withdrew Rs. 7000, C withdrew Rs. 2000. At the end of the year, total profit was Rs. 70,600.

Formula: Ratio of profits after investment = ratio of sum of the product of investment amount and the time invested for.

Calculation:

A

B

C

12000 × 5 + 8000 × 7

15000 × 5 + 8000 × 7

10,000 × 5 + 8000 × 7

60,000 + 56000

75000 + 56000

50,000 + 56000

116,000

131,000

106,000


Share of B = 131000/353,000 × 70,600 = 26,200
