P, Q and R start a business. P invests 3 times as much as Q invests and Q invests 2/3rd as much as R invests. Find the ratio of capitals of P, Q and R ?

1. 3 : 2 : 6
2. 2 : 6 : 3
3. 6 : 2 : 3
4. 5 : 2 : 3

Correct Option: C

Let investment of R = N
Then, investment of Q = 2N/3
and investment of P = 2N

∴ Ratio of capitals of P, Q and R = 2N : (2N/3) : N
= 6N : 2N : 3N = 6 : 2 : 3
