    Solution

    A’s investment: ₹12,000 for 4 months + ₹8,000 for 8 months = 48,000 + 64,000 = ₹1,12,000. B’s investment: ₹18,000 for 4 months + ₹24,000 for 8 months = 72,000 + 1,92,000 = ₹2,64,000. C’s investment: ₹24,000 for 6 months + ₹16,000 for 6 months = 1,44,000 + 96,000 = ₹2,40,000. Total investment ratio = A:B:C = 1,12,000:2,64,000:2,40,000 = 7:16:15. B’s share = (16/38) × 1,98,000 = ₹83,368. Correct option: c
