A, B, C subscribe Rs. 50,000 for a business. A subscribes Rs. 4000 more than B and B Rs. 5000 more than C. Out of a total profit of Rs. 35,000, A receives

A. Rs. 8400

B. Rs. 11,900

C. Rs. 13,600

D. Rs. 14,700

Answer: Option D

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Let C = x.
Then, B = x + 5000 and A = x + 5000 + 4000 = x + 9000
So, x + x + 5000 + x + 9000 = 50000
⇒ 3x = 36000
⇒ x = 12000
A : B : C = 21000 : 17000 : 12000 = 21 : 17 : 12
$$\eqalign{ & {\text{So A's Share}} \cr & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{. 3}}5000 \times \frac{{21}}{{50}} \cr & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{. 14700}} \cr} $$
