A and B entered into partnership with capitals in the ratio 4 : 5. After 3 months, A withdrew 1/4 of his capital and B withdrew 1/5 of his capital. The gain at the end of 10 months was Rs. 760. A's share in this profit is:

A. Rs. 330
B. Rs. 360
C. Rs. 380
D. Rs. 430

• If earlier their investmwnts were 4x and 5x for 3 months
  and then
  3x and 4x for next 7 months,
  
  Then profit will be divided in ratio of (4x*3 + 3x*7) :( 5x*3+4x*7) or 33:43
  
  Hence A's share in profit of Rs 760 = 760*33/76 = Rs 330.
