Explain the Answer of the Given Partnership Problem
A, B, and 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? Here the answer is 14700. I want an explanation, can anyone help me?

Answer 1

Let amount invested by c= x So amount by b= x+5000 Amount by a = x+5000+4000=x+9000 So amount by c= (50000-14000)/3= 12000 By b= 17000 C=21000 Profit gained = 35000×100/50000 =70% So profit recieved by a =21000×70/100 =14700 Hope you can figure out now :)
