Question
A, B and C enter into a partnership with a capital in
which A’s contribution is Rs. 10,000. If out of a total profit of Rs. 2000, A gets Rs. 800 and B gets Rs. 500, then C’s capital is:Solution
A : B : C = 800 : 500 : 700 = 8:5:7 Let their capitals be 8x, 5x and 7x respectively. Then, 8x = 10000 => x = 1250 C’s capital = 7x = Rs. 8750
