Book Maths Puzzle

Three partners A , B , C start a business . B's Capital is four times C's capital and twice A's capital is equal to thrice B's capital . If the total profit is Rs 16500 at the end of a year ,Find out B's share in it.

Read Solution (Total 1)

Explanation :

Suppose C's capital = x then

B's capital = 4x (Since B's Capital is four times C's capital)

A's capital = 6x ( Since twice A's capital is equal to thrice B's capital)

A:B:C =6 x : 4x : x

= 6 : 4 : 1

B's share = 16500 * (4/11) = 1500*4 = 6000
