Question 1096245: a b and c started a business by investing Rs 7000, Rs 5000 , Rs 3000 respectively . if they earned a profit of Rs 9000 , find the share of A ? Answer by ikleyn(52795) (Show Source):
Their total starting investment was 7000 + 5000 + 3000 = 15000 Rs.
If they distribute the profit proportionally to the starting investment of each, then A shares of Rs 9000, which is Rs 4200,
since A contributed to the starting capital.
