Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
Rakesh, Amit and Suresh started a business. Rakesh invested 1/2 part, Amit 1/3 part and rest of the capital was invested by Suresh.
Remaining part = 1-(1/2 + 1/3) = 1- [(3-2)/6] = 5/6
Share of their profits = 1/2 : 1/3 : 5/6 = 3:2:1
The correct answer is option (2) : 3 : 2 : 1
