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)
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/-
