A and B start a business with investments of Rs. 5000 and Rs. 4500 respectively. After 4 months, A takes out half of his capital. After two more months B takes out one-third of his capital while C joins them with a capital of Rs. 7000. At the end of a year, they earn a profit of Rs. 5080. Find the share of each member in the profit ?
A. A = Rs. 1400, B = Rs. 1900, C = Rs. 1780
B. A = Rs. 1600, B = Rs. 1800, C = Rs. 1680
C. A = Rs. 1800, B = Rs. 1500, C = Rs. 1780
D. A = Rs. 1680, B = Rs. 1600, C = Rs. 1800
E. None of these
Answer: Option B
Solution(By Examveda Team)
A : B : C(5000 × 4 + 2500 × 8) : (4500 × 6 + 3000 × 6) : (7000 × 6)
= 40000 : 45000 : 42000
= 40 : 45 : 42
$$\eqalign{ & \therefore {\text{A's share}} \cr & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{.}}\left( {5080 \times \frac{{40}}{{127}}} \right) \cr & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{.}}\,{\text{1600}} \cr & \therefore {\text{B's share}} \cr & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{.}}\left( {5080 \times \frac{{45}}{{127}}} \right) \cr & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{.}}\,{\text{1800}} \cr & \therefore {\text{C's share}} \cr & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{.}}\left( {5080 \times \frac{{42}}{{127}}} \right) \cr & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{.}}\,{\text{1680}} \cr} $$
