investments of Rs. 17,200, Rs. 25,800, and Rs. 32,250, respectively. After 20 months, C completely withdrew his investment. Four months later, B also withdrew his entire investment. The business continued for a total duration of 25 months, at the end of which A's share of the profit was Rs. 650. Determine the total profit earned by the business.Solution
