B)  Rs. 6,000

C)  Rs. 7,000         

D)  Rs. 5,000

Correct Answer: C

Solution :

 As capital = Rs.6,000 Total profit = Rs.800 Profit share of A= Rs.300 Profit share of C = Rs.150 Profit share of \[B=Rs.\,800-Rs.(300+150)\] \[=Rs.350\] \[\therefore \]  Capital of \[B=6000\times \frac{350}{300}\] \[=\,\,\,\underline{\mathbf{Rs}\mathbf{.}\,\mathbf{7,000}}\]
