A, B and C enter into partnership in a business. A gets \(\frac{5}{7}\)th of the profit and B and C distributed the remaining profit equally. If C gets Rs.200 less than A, then the total profit is:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
Let the total profit = 7 unit
A's profit = \(\frac{5}{7}\) of 7 = 5
Remaining profit = 2 unit
B's profit = 1R
C's profit = 1R
ATQ,
Difference b/w A's and C's profit = 5R - 1R = 4R
4R = 200
1R = 50
Total Profit = 7R = 7 × 50 = 350
