  • Options

  • B. Rs. 16000
  • C. Rs. 80000
  • D. None of these

  • Correct Answer
  • Rs. 80000 

    Explanation

    Ratio of shares = 27000 : 81000 : 72000 = 3 : 9 : 8
    If Ram's share is Rs. 9 then total profit = Rs. 20
    If Ram's share is Rs. 36000 then total profit = Rs. (20/9) x 36000
    = Rs. 80000
