Amitabh, Brijesh and Kamesh enters a partnership with shares in the ratio of \( \large \frac{7}{2}:\frac{4}{3} :\frac{6}{5} \). After 4 months, Amitabh increases his share by 50%. If the total profit at the end of the year be Rs.21600, what will be the share of Brijesh in the profit?

A) Rs.8000
B) Rs.12000
C) Rs.4000
D) Rs.7000

Correct Answer:



C) Rs.4000

Description for Correct answer:

Given ratio = \( \Large \frac{7}{2} : \frac{4}{3} : \frac{6}{5} \)

= \( \Large \frac{7}{2} \times 30 : \frac{4}{3} \times 30 : \frac{6}{5} \times 30 \)

= 105 : 40 : 36

Let the investment of Amitabh = 105x
Investment of Brijesh = 40x
Investment of Kamlesh = 36x

Ratio of their investments = [105x X 4 + 150% X 8 of 105x] : (40x X 12) : (36x X 12)

=\( \Large \left( 420x + \frac{150}{100} \times 105x \times 8 \right) \) : (480x) : (432x)

= 35 : 10 : 9

Brijesh's share = \( \Large \left( 21600 \times \frac{10}{35 + 10 + 9} \right) \)

= \( \Large \left( 21600 \times \frac{10}{54} \right) \) = Rs.4000
