81 : 48 : 22 27 : 48 : 22 81 : 16 : 66 27 : 16 : 66 |
81 : 48 : 22 |
Profit = Investment × time I : II : III Time ⇒ 4 : 6 : 18 Profit ⇒ 9 : 8 : 11 ---------------------------------------- Inv. ⇒ \(\frac{9}{4}\) : \(\frac{8}{6}\) : \(\frac{11}{18}\) = \(\frac{81\;:\;48\;:\;22}{36}\) = 81 : 48 : 22 |
