A, B and C invested Rs. 47000 for a business. If A subscribes Rs. 7000 more than B and B Rs. 5000 more than C, then out of total profit of Rs. 4700, C receives ?

a) Rs. 1200
b) Rs. 4500
c) Rs. 1000
d) None of these

Answer: c
Explanation: Let C subscribes the business = Rs. x
A : B : C
Capital → (x + 12000) : (x + 5000) : x
Note: Profit would be divide in the ratio of their capitals
$$\eqalign{ & \Rightarrow \left( {x + 12000} \right) + \left( {x + 5000} \right) + x = 47000 \cr & 3x + 17000 = 47000 \cr & 3x = 30000 \cr & x = 10000 \cr & {\text{ A }}:{\text{ B }}:{\text{ C}} \cr & {\text{Capital}} \to 22000:15000:10000 \cr & {\text{Profit}} \to {\text{ }}22{\text{ }}:{\text{ }}15{\text{ }}:{\text{ }}10 \cr & \left( {22 + 15 + 10} \right){\text{ units}} = {\text{4700}} \cr & {\text{1 unit}} = \frac{{4700}}{{47}} = 100 \cr & {\text{Share of C}} = 10{\text{ units}} = 10 \times 100 = {\text{Rs}}.1000 \cr & \cr} $$
