    A 470 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 580 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 680 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 560 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Investment Ratio: Pooja: Meena = 6000: 4000 = 3: 2. Total Profit= Rs. 1000. Pooja's Management Share= 1000 × 20%   = 200 Rs. Remaining Profit= 1000 - 200 = 800 Rs. Proportional Distribution Ratio = 3: 2. Total Ratio Units= 3 + 2 =5. Pooja's Share of Remaining Profit= 800×3/5= 480 Rs. Total Amount Received by Pooja= 200 + 480 = 680 Rs.
