A, B and C enter into a partnership with shares in the ratio 7/2 : 4/3 : 6/5. After 4 months, A increases his share by 50%. If the total profit at the end of one year be Rs. 21600, then B's share in the profit is?

Rs. 2100
Rs. 2400
Rs. 3600
Rs. 4000

Correct Answer: Rs. 4000

Explanation:

Given Ratio = 7/2 : 4/3 : 6/5 = 105 : 40 : 36
Let them initially invest Rs. 105, Rs. 40 and Rs. 36 respectively.
Ratio investment = [105 x 4 + (150% of 105) x 8] : (40 x 12) : (36 x 12)
=1680 : 480 : 432 = 35 : 10 : 9
∴ B's share = Rs. 21600 x (10/54) = Rs. 4000
