In a business A and C invested amounts in the ratio 2:1, whereas A and B invested amounts in the ratio 3 : 2. If their annual profit be ₹ 157300, then B’s share in the profit is:

Solution

Given,

Investment ratio of A and C is A : C = 2 : 1

$$=$$> A : C = 6 : 3

Investment ratio of A and B is A : B = 3 : 2

$$=$$> A : B = 6 : 4

Investment ratio of A, B and C is A : B : C = 6 : 4 : 3

$$\therefore\ $$Profit ratio of A : B : C = 6 : 4 : 3

Annual profit = ₹ 157300

Share of B in the profit = $$\frac{4}{6+4+3}\times157300=\frac{4}{13}\times157300=$$₹ 48400

Hence, the correct answer is Option B
