    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Ratio of equivalent capitals of A, B and C for 1 month \[=35000\times 12:20000\times 5:15000\times 7\] \[=35\times 12:20\times 5:15\times 7=84:20:21\] Sum of the ratios \[=84+20+21=125\] \[\therefore \]B's share             \[=Rs.\,\left( \frac{20}{125}\times 84125 \right)=Rs.13460\]
