Three friends invested ₹12000, ₹15000 and ₹110000 respectively to purchase a bus. The first person is a driver and the other are conductors. They decided to divide of the profit among themselves in the ratio of 3:2:2 according to their work and the remaining in the ratio of their capitals. If they earn ₹29260 in one month, let us find the share of each of them.

Given, 3 friends, say A, B and C, started a partnership business by investing ₹12000, ₹15000 and ₹110000 respectively.


Ratio of partnership = 12000 : 15000 : 110000


= 12 : 15 : 110


They earn = ₹29260 in one month


Profit which they divide in the ratio of 3:2:2 according to their work


= 11704


Hence, their shares in ratio of 3:2:2 are:



= ₹5016



= ₹3344



= ₹3344


Profit which they divide in the ratio of their capitals




= ₹17556


Hence, their shares in ratio of their capitals are:



= ₹5016



= ₹3344



= ₹3344


A’s share = ₹9600 - ₹6000


= ₹3600


B’s share = ₹12800 - ₹8000


= ₹4800


C’s share = ₹8000 - ₹5000


= ₹3000
