Hi Sai Raina, It is mentioned that 16% profit is received by A for managing the business. Therefore, 84% of the profit is received by all of them based on their invested capital. Profit divided based on the capital will be in the ratio A : B : C = 3000(12) : 2500(8) : 2800(5) = 18 : 10 : 7 Let the total profit be 'P'. It is given, 0.16P + (18/35) 0.84P = 888 Solving we get, P = Rs 1500 Profit earned by B = (10/35) 0.84 * 1500 = Rs 360 Profit earned by C = (7/35) 0.84 * 1500 = Rs 252 Hope this helps!
