    A Rs. 18,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs. 24,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs. 27,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs. 36,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Rs. 30,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the total capital invested by 'A', 'B' and 'C' together be Rs. '100x' So, capital invested by 'A' = 100x ├Ч 0.5 = Rs. '50x' And, capital invested by 'B' = (100x тИТ 50x) ├Ч 0.3 = Rs. '15x' And, capital invested by 'C' = 100x тИТ 50x тИТ 15x = Rs. '35x' Ratio of profit share of 'A', 'B' and 'C' = {50x ├Ч 12}:{15x ├Ч 12}:{35x ├Ч 12} = 10:3:7 So, profit share of 'B' = 1,80,000 ├Ч (3/20) = Rs. 27,000
