Answer 1

Answer:

d is the correct answer

Answer 2

Answer:

a. 5:8:44

Step-by-step explanation:

time = T , capital = I

A's capital = I/4 for T/4

B's capital = I/5 for T/2

C's capital = I - (I/4 + I/5) for T

= 11I/20 for T

profit ratio = (I/4 * T/4):(I/5 * T/2): (11I/20 * T)

= (1/16):(1/10):(11/20)

= (5/80):(8/80):(44/80)

=5:8:44
