A, B and C invested different amounts in a business for 4 months, 6 months and 12 months respectively. B's investment was 2 times A's investment and C's investment was 2.5 times A's investment. If at the end of the year, they together received an amount of Rs. 5,819/- as profit, what was B's share in the profit ?

A) Rs.1,404/-
B) Rs.1,428/-
C) Rs.1,518/-
D) Rs.1,536/-
E) Rs.1,644/-

Correct Answer:



C) Rs.1,518/-

Description for Correct answer:
Let captial of A = x

Then, captial of B = 2x

Capital of C = 2.5x

A : B : C = x X 4 : 2x X 6 : 2.5x X 12

= 2 : 6 : 15

Share of B = \( \Large \frac{6}{2 + 6 + 15} \) X 5819

= Rs. 1518/-
