Correct Answer: 2,52,000 and 1,56,800


Solution : Investment ratio of A and B = (12 × 75000) : (7 × 80000) = 45 : 28
Here investment ratio = profit ratio
Total profit = INR 408800
Share of A = $\frac{45}{45+28}$ × 408800 = INR 2,52,000
Share of B = $\frac{28}{45+28}$ × 408800 = INR 1,56,800
Hence, the correct answer is 2,52,000 and 1,56,800.
