Solution

Initial investment ratio =4:5:6
Let the common invested amount be x Rs.
sum invested by A,
4x=48000.
x=12000 Rs.
Thus B invested =5×12000=60000
Thus C invested =6×12000=72000
Ratio in which the profit will be divide,
=48000×12:60000×12:72000×6+36000×6
=8:10:9.
Total profit =60000 Rs
So C's share =927×60000=20000 Rs.
