A. Rs. 600

B. Rs. 1200

C. Rs. 1800

D. Rs. 1950

Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

$$\eqalign{ & {\text{investment of A}} = 1000 \cr & {\text{So, investment of B}} + {\text{C}} \cr & = {\text{6000}} - 1000 \cr & = 5000 \cr & {\text{B}}:{\text{C}} = 5000 \cr & 2:3 = 2000:3000 \cr} $$
So,

A	:	B	:	C
1000	:	2000	:	3000
1	:	2	:	3 = 6

$$\eqalign{ & \therefore {\text{Profit of C}} = \frac{3}{6} \times 2400 \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = 1200 \cr} $$
