    A (i) & (iii) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B (i) & (ii) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C (ii), (iii) & (v) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D (i), (ii),(iii) & (iv) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Only (ii) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    B invested = Rs. 2200 So, A invested = ½ of 2200 = Rs.1100 Let C invested Rs.x for T time. So ratio of profit of A, B & C = 1100 × 12 : 2200 × 4 : x × T Now As profit of A & C are equal, 1100 × 12 = x × T As T can be less than 8 months so it can be any number from 1 to 7. For T=1, x = 13200 For T=2, x = 6600 For T=3, x = 4400 For T=4, x = 3300 For T=5, x = 2640 For T=6, x = 2200 For T=7, x = 1885.71 Hence answer is (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv).
