Question: A, B, C and D enter into partnership. A subscribes 1/3 of the capital B 1/4, C 1/5 and D the rest. How much share did A get in a profit of Rs.2460?
Options:
(A) 750
(B) 277
(C) 262
(D) 231
(E) 123 Let's think first. Some random reasoning:
1/2:1/3:1/4 = 6:4:3
Ram = 6/13 * 3250 = 1500
Shyam = 4/13 * 3250 = 1000
Mohan = 3/13 * 3250 = 750 The final answer: (A).
