      β€˜A’ and β€˜B’ together started a business by

      investing Rs. 8,000 and Rs. 12,000, respectively. β€˜A’ also works as a manager and hence is entitled to receive 40% of the total profit as salary. The rest of the profit will be divided between β€˜A’ and β€˜B’ in the ratio of their investments. If the salary received by β€˜A’ from the business at the end of the year is Rs. 6,000, then find the profit share of β€˜B’ at the end of the year.
