D. Rs. 2800
Answer: Option C
Solution (By Examveda Team)
| A | : | B |
| 8 × 4000 + 4 × 6000 | : | 8 × 4000 + 4 × 6000 |
| 56 | : | 54 |
Total profit is Rs. 6700 but Rs. 100 per month is withdrawn by A,
So Rs. 1200 is taken by A in one year. Remaining profit will be distributed between A and B.
According to the question,
56x + 54x = 6700 - 1200
110x = 5500
x = 50
B's share = 54 × 50 = Rs. 2700
