In a business, A and C invested amounts in the ratio 2 : 1 , whereas the ratio between amounts invested by A and B was 3 : 2 . If Rs.157300 was their profit, how much amount did B receive?
48000
48200
48400
48600
Explanation:
Assume that investment of C $=x$
Then, investment of A $=2x$
Investment of B $=\dfrac{4x}{3}$
A:B:C $=2x:\dfrac{4x}{3}:x$
=2:$\dfrac{4}{3}$:1=6:4:3
Bs share $=157300×\dfrac{4}{6+4+3}$
$=157300×\dfrac{4}{13}=12100×4=48400$
