A invest \(\frac{2}{5}\)th of the capital for \(\frac{2}{5}\)th of the time, B invest \(\frac{1}{5}\)th of the capital for \(\frac{1}{5}\)th of the time and C invest rest of the capital for whole the time. Find profit sharing ratio.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
Let the capital = 5R and the time ratio = 5
A : B : C
Capital : 2 : 1 : 2
Time : 2 : 1 : 5
------------------------------------------------
Profit : 4 : 1 : 10 (Profit ratio = capital × time)
