If at the end of the year, C got INR 12550/- as his share of profit, what was the total profit earned

  • INR 25100/-
  • INR 26600/-
  • INR 24300/-
  • INR 22960/-
  • INR 21440/-
  • Explanation:

    A:B:C

    =20000×6+12000×6:28000×6+20000×6

    :36000×6+44000×6

    =20000+12000:28000+20000 : 36000+44000

    =20+12:28+20 : 36+44

    =5+3:7+5:9+11

    =8:12:20=2:3:5

    Let the total profit earned be INR x.

    5/10×x = 12550 

    x = INR 25100/-
