Solution

The correct option is B $R s . 16400$
Ratio of investment by Srikant and Vividh is
$= \frac{185000}{225000} = \frac{185}{225} = \frac{37}{45}$

therefore there profit sharing will be in the same ratio $= \frac{37}{45} = k$ (ratio constant)
then $45 k = 9000$
therefore $k = \frac{9000}{45} = 200$
Hence total profit
$= (37 + 45) k = 82 k = 82 \times 200 = 16400 R s$
