Rs. 8,000, Rs. 10,000, and Rs. 24,000, respectively. The ratio of number of months for which Ashish, Amit and Atul kept their money invested was 4:3:2, respectively.

If the business made a profit of Rs. 1,40,000, then find the profit share received by Amit.Solution
Let the number of months for which Ashish, Amit and Atul invested their money be ‘4x’ months, ‘3x’ months and ‘2x’ months, respectively. So, ratio of profit shares of Ashish, Amit and Atul = (8000 × 4x):(10000 × 3x):(24000 × 2x) = 16:15:24 Total distributable profit =1,40,000 – 30000 = Rs. 1,10,000 ATQ: So, share of Amit = 1,10,000 × {15x/(15x + 16x + 24x)} = Rs. 30,000
