A and B invest in the ratio of 3 : 5, respectively. After 6 months, C enters the business with the investment of the capital equal to that of B. What will be the ratio of the profits of A, B and C at the end of year ?
-
- 6 : 10 : 5
- 3 : 5 : 5
- 3 : 5 : 2
- 6 : 2 : 3
Correct Option: A
Let investment of A = 3N
∴ Investment of B = 5N
Investment of C = 5N
As we know,
Ratio of profits = Ratio of investments
∴ A's share : B's share : C's share
= 3N x 12 : 5N x 12 : 5N x (12 - 6)
= 3N x 12 : 5N x 12 : 5N x 6
= 6 : 10 : 5
