Options:

Rs. 1200

Rs. 1500

Rs. 900

Rs. 1300

Correct Answer:

Rs. 1200

Explanation:

           A   :   B   :   C

Inv.⇒   3   :  1

                   2   :    3   

⇒         6  :  2    :   3

*If time is same then investment ratio becomes profit ratio*

Profit:  6  :  2    :   3    =   11R

11R = 6600

1R = 600

B's Profit = 2R = 2 × 600 = 1200
