Question : A, B and C enter into a partnership with capitals in the ratio $\frac{2}{3}: \frac{3}{5}: \frac{5}{6}$. After 8 months, A increases his share of capital by 25%. If at the end of the year, the total profit earned is INR 5,820, then the share of C in the profit is:
Option 1: INR 2,050
Option 2: INR 2,350
Option 3: INR 2,450
Option 4: INR 2,250
Correct Answer: INR 2,250
Solution : Capitals ratio of A, B and C = $\frac{2}{3} : \frac{3}{5} : \frac{5}{6}$ = $\frac{2\times30}{3} : \frac{3\times30}{5} : \frac{5\times30}{6}$ = $20 : 18 : 25$ Capitals ratio of A, B and C after the end of the year, $=(20 × 8 + 20 × \frac{5}{4} × 4) : 18 × 12 : 25 × 12$ $=(160 + 100) : 216 : 300$ $=260 : 216 : 300$ Capitals ratio of A, B and C after end of the year $=260x : 216x : 300x = 65x : 54x : 75x$ According to the question, $65x + 54x + 75x = 5820$ ⇒ $194x = 5820$ ⇒ $x = 30$ $\therefore$ Share of C = 75 × 30 = INR 2,250 Hence, the correct answer is INR 2,250.
