Question

A, B and C enter into a partnership. A advances one-fourth of the
capital for one fourth of the time; B advances one-fourth of the
capital for half of the time; and C, the remainder of the capital for the
whole time. How much C gets from profit of Rs 3421?​

Answer 1

Answer:

C' profit=Rs 2488

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total capital=Rs 100x and total time=4t

Thus A advances =25x Rs for 4t/4==t time

Thus A's advance=25x*t=25xt

B's advancement=25x*2t=50xt

C's capital =(100x-25x-25x) for 4t time

C's part=50x*4t=200xt

Total advancement=25xt+50xt+200xt=275xt

Thus C' profit

=(200xt/275xt)*3421

=8/11 * 3421 =Rs 2488
