    In a partnership business, A invest \[\frac{1}{6}\]th of the capital for \[\frac{1}{6}\]of the total time, B invests \[\frac{1}{4}\] of the capital for \[\frac{1}{4}\] of the total time and C, the rest of the capital for the whole time. Out of a profit of Rs. 19,400, B's share is:

    A)  Rs. 2000          

    B)  Rs. 1200

    C)  Rs. 1600          

    D)         Rs. 1800

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] Ratio of profit sharing \[=\frac{1}{6}\times \frac{1}{6}:\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}:\frac{7}{12}\times 1=\frac{1}{36}:\frac{1}{16}:\frac{7}{12}\] \[=\frac{1}{36}\times 144:\frac{1}{16}\times 144:\frac{7}{12}\times 144=4:9:84\] Sum of ratios = 97 \[\therefore \]B's share \[=\frac{9}{97}\times 19400=Rs.\,\,1800\]
