Amitabh, Brijesh and Kamlesh enter a partnership with shares in the ratio of 7/2 : 4/3 : 6/5. After 4 months, Amitabh increases his share by 50% If the total profit at the end of the year be ₹ 21600, what will be the share of Brijesh in the profit ?
-
- ₹ 8000
- ₹ 12000
- ₹ 4000
- ₹ 7000
Correct Option: C
Given. ratio = 7/2 : 4/3 : 6/5
= (7/2) x 30 : (4/3) x 30 : (6/5) x 30
= 105 : 40 : 36
Let investment of Amitabh = 105k
Investment of Kamlesh = 36k
Ratio of their investments
= [105k x 4 + 150% x8 of 105k] : (40k x 12) : (36k x 12)
= (420k + (150/100) x 105k x 8) : (480k) : (432k)
= (1680k) : (480k) : (432k)
= 35 : 10 : 9
∴ Brijesh's share
= (21600 x 10) / (35 + 10 + 9)
= (21600 x 10) / 54
= ₹ 4000
