A and B entered into a partnership by investing ₹16000 and ₹12000 respectively. After 3 months, A withdrew ₹5000 while B invested ₹5000 more. After 3 more months, C joined the business with a capital of ₹21000. If after one year, the profit is ₹26400, then by how much the share of B in the profit exceeds that of C ?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
ratio of profit of A , B and C = 147 : 189 : 126

Total profit = 22R = 26400
1R = 1200
Share of B in the profit exceeds that of C by = 9R - 6R = 3R
= 3 × 1200
= 3600
The correct answer is option (4) : ₹3600
