A and C invested amounts in the ratio 2 : 1 in a business, whereas the ratio between amount invested by A and B was 3 : 2. If Rs. 1,57,300 was their profit, B's share in that profit was:

Solution:

Here, A : C = 2 : 1 ⇒ C : A = 1 : 2 and A : B = 3 : 2
Hence, C : A : B = 3 : 6 : 4, then, A : B : C = 6 : 4 : 3
∴ B's profit =

4/13 × 157300

= Rs. 48400
