Answer:-
1
Explanation:-
Solution:
Let A's capital = Rs. x
Then, B's capital = Rs. (x - 600)
C's capital = Rs. (x - 600) - 300 = Rs. (x - 900)
∴ x + (x - 600) + (x - 900) = 3000
⇒ 3x = 45000
⇒ x = 1500
So, A
:
B
:
C
=
1500
:
900
:
600
=
5
:

:
2
Hence, B's share
=

.
(

=

So, A
:

:

:

:

:

Hence, B's share

Answer:-
1
Explanation:-
Solution:
Let the total profit = Rs. k
According to the question,
