ATQ, [Profits distributed in the ratio of investment × time] Calculation:                    A           B           C Investment         3            4           8 Time               x            y           z ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Profits Distribution   2              3           5 ⇒ 3x = 2 ; 4y = 3 ; 8z = 5 ⇒ x = 2/3; y = 3/4; z = 5/8 Taking LCM of 3, 4, 8 = 24  x = (2/3) × 24 =16  y = (3/4) × 24 =18 z = (5/8) × 24 = 15 ∴ x ∶ y ∶ z = 16 ∶ 18 ∶ 15
