    A 6 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 7 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 8 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 9 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E 2 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Profit share ratio of β€˜A’, β€˜B’ and β€˜C’ = (7000 Γ— 12):[28000 Γ— (12 – x)]:(14000 Γ— 7) = 6:2(12 – x):7 Given, the profit share ratio of β€˜A’ and β€˜B’is equal. So, 6:2(12 – x) = 1:1 3 = (12 – x) x = 12 – 3 = 9 So, the value of x = 9
