A, B and C started a business together. The respective ratio of investment of A and B was 7:9 and that of B and C was 18:11. All of them invested for equal period of time. If the total profit earned by them was Rs. 15,050. what was C’s share of profit?
A : B = 7 : 9 = 14 : 18
B : C = 18 : 11
=> Ratio of investments = A : B : C = 14 : 18 : 11
Total profit = Rs. 15,050
$$\therefore$$ C's share of profit = $$\frac{11}{14 + 18 + 11} \times 15,050$$
= $$\frac{11}{43} \times 15050$$
= $$11 \times 350$$ = Rs. $$3,850$$
