  • A, B and C invested capitals in the ratio of 4 : 6 : 9. At the end of the business term, they received the profit in the ratio of 2 : 3 : 5. Find the ratio of their time for which they contributed their capitals.


  • Options
  • A. 1 : 1 : 9
  • B. 2 : 2 : 9
  • C. 10 : 10 : 9
  • D. 9 : 9 : 10

  • Correct Answer
  • 9 : 9 : 10 

    Explanation

    Here, P1 : P2 : P3 = 2 : 3 : 5 [profit's ratio]
    and x1 : x2 : x3 = 4 : 6 : 9 [investment's ratio]

    According to the rule,
    Required ratio = P1/x1 : P2/x2 : P3/x3
    = 2/4 : 3/6 : 5/9
    = 1/2 : 1/2 : 5/9 = 9 : 9 : 10
