A, B, C subscribe Rs. 1,00,000 for a business. A subscribes Rs. 8,000 more than B and B Rs. 10,000 more than C. Out of a total profit of Rs. 1,05,000, A receives:
Explanation:
Let C’s investment = x.
Then, B = x + 10,000 and A = x + 10,000 + 8,000 = x + 18,000.
So, x + x + 10,000 + x + 18,000 = 1,00,000
∴ 3x = 72,000
∴ x = 24,000
A : B : C = 42000 : 34000 : 24000 = 21 : 17 : 12.
∴ A's share = Rs.(1,05,000 × 21/50) = Rs. 44,100.
Hence, option (d).
