There are three business partners A, B and C such that capital investment of A is ₹20,000 more than twice the investment of B and C invests ₹60,000 less than A. If they joining invest ₹4,80,000, their capital ratio is :
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → 11 : 5 : 8
Investment of B = Rs. $x$
Investment of A = Rs. $(2x + 20,000)$
Investment of C = Rs. $(2x - 40,000)$
$A+B+C=4,80,000$
$⇒5x-20,000=4,80,000$
$⇒x=1,00,000$
$⇒A:B:C=2,00,000:1,00,000:1,60,000$
$=11:5:8$
