Question
A, B and C enter into partnership by making investments
in the ratio 3: 5: 7. After a year, C invests another Rs 337600 while A withdraws Rs 45600. The ratio of investments then changes to 24: 59: 167. How much does A invest initially?Solution
Let their investment be =3x, 5x, 7x After a year A investment = 3x - 45600 B investment= 5x C investment =7x + 337600  New ratio = 3x - 45600: 5x (3x-45600)/5x=24/59  x = 47200 So A investment =47200 × 3 =1, 41, 600Â
