Three persons A, B and C invested different amounts in a
business, which are in A.P. The amount invested by B is Rs. 2000 more than that of A. C invested the highest amount. Find the total profit received if all of them invested their sum for equal duration and A invested Rs. 13000 for 4 months and received Rs. 1300 as profit.Solution
Ratio of profits received by A, B and C= (13000 times; 4):(15000 times; 4):(17000 times; 4) = 13:15:17 Therefore, total profit received = 1300 times; (13 + 15 + 17)/13 = Rs. 4500
