• C. $Rs.20500,Rs.21200,Rs.28200$
• D. $Rs.20500,Rs.23200,Rs.26200$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $Rs.20500,Rs.21200,Rs.28200$

Ratio of the capitals of A, B and C = $20000\times 5+15000\times 7:20000\times 5+16000\times 720000\times 5+26000\times 7$
$=205000:212000:282000=205:212:282$
$\therefore$ A's share $=Rs.(69900\times \frac{205}{699})=RS.20500$
B's share $=Rs.(69900\times \frac{212}{699})=RS.21200$
C's share $=Rs.(69900\times \frac{282}{699})=RS.28200$
