    Solution

    Profit ∝ (Capital Γ— Time in months) A: 40,000 for 12 months β†’ 40,000 Γ— 12 = 4,80,000 B: 60,000 for 12 months β†’ 60,000 Γ— 12 = 7,20,000 C: 50,000 for (12 βˆ’ 4) = 8 months β†’ 50,000 Γ— 8 = 4,00,000 Ratio A : B : C = 4,80,000 : 7,20,000 : 4,00,000 Divide by 80,000 β†’ 6 : 9 : 5 Total parts = 6 + 9 + 5 = 20 C’s share = (5/20) Γ— 66,000 = (1/4) Γ— 66,000 = 16,500
