Solution

The correct option is D
₹ 800

Ratio of investments = 25000 : 20000 : 10000

When we simplify this ratio , we get = 5 : 4 : 2

Let John get 5x Rafay get 4x and Usman get 2x in the profit as per ratio of investments

$∴$ 5x + 4x + 2x = ₹ 2200

$\Rightarrow$ 11 x = ₹ 2200

$\Rightarrow$ x = ₹ 200

$∴$ Rafay will get = 4x = 4 $\times$ 200 = ₹ 800
