A and B start a business with Rs. 14000 and Rs. 11000 respectively and got a profit Rs. 5000. Half of the profit is shared equally and the remaining is shared according to their investment, then their profits are: A) Rs. 2650, Rs. 2350 B) Rs. 2800, Rs. 2200 C) Rs. 2750, Rs. 2250 D) Rs. 2900, Rs. 2100

• A and B got half amount form the 5000 equally 5000/2=2500
  so 2500/2=1250
  now another 2500 is shared with their ratios 14:11
  A=14/25*2500=1400+1250=2650
  B=11/25*2500=1100+1250=2350
