    B Rs.330 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs.700 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs.660 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The ratio of the profit share of X to Y = {(4800 * 3) + (6000 * 9)} : (7200 * 12) = {14400 + 54000}: 86400 = 68400: 86400 = 7:9 The required difference = 5600 * (9 тАУ 7)/(9 + 7) = 5600 * (2/16) = Rs. 700.
