      'A' and 'B' started a business by investing Rs. 7,200

      and Rs. 9,000, respectively. If 'A' and 'B' invested their investments for 10 months and 14 months, respectively, then find the profit share of 'B' out of the total profit earned by them which is Rs. 6,500.
      A Rs. 5,836 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
