A, B and C start a small business. A contributes 1/5th of the total capital invested in the business. B contributes as much as A and C together. Total profit at the end of the year was INR 5200/-. What was C's profit share (in INR)

  • INR 1510/-
  • INR 2510/-
  • INR 1500/-
  • INR 2560/-
  • INR 1560/-
  • Explanation:

    Let the total money be INR x

    A's money = x/5

    (B+C)'s money = 4/5x

    According to question,

    B's money = (A+C)'s money

    So, B's money = x/2

    C's money = 3x/10

    A:B:C = x/5:x/2:3x/10= 2:5:3

    Hence, C's profit share = 5200×3/10 = INR 1560/-
