A, B, C subscribe Tk. 50,000 for a business. A subscribes Tk. 4000 more than B and B Tk. 5000 more than C. Out of a total profit of Tk. 35,000, A receives:

A    Tk. 8400

B    Tk. 11,900

C    Tk. 13,600

D    Tk. 14,700

Solution

Correct Answer: Option D

 

Let C = x.

Then, B = x + 5000 and A = x + 5000 + 4000 = x + 9000.

So, x + x + 5000 + x + 9000 = 50000

=> 3x = 36000

=> x = 12000

A : B : C = 21000 : 17000 : 12000 = 21 : 17 : 12.

Therefore, A's share = Tk. (35000 x21/50) = Tk. 14,700.
