Difficulty: Medium
Correct Answer: ₹ 360
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:
 This is a two-stage distribution: first, a fixed monthly amount to A for management; second, a proportional split of the remaining profit. We must separate these carefully to find B's portion.
Given Data / Assumptions:
 
Concept / Approach:
 Deduct A's remuneration from A's total to get A's share from the remainder. Then back out the total remainder and compute B's share.
Step-by-Step Solution:
 A's share from remainder = 390 − 120 = ₹ 270. Let remainder = T. A gets 3/7 of T = 270 ⇒ T = 270 * (7/3) = ₹ 630. Therefore, B gets 4/7 of T = (4/7)*630 = ₹ 360.
Verification / Alternative check:
 A's total = remuneration 120 + share 270 = ₹ 390. Remainder 630 splits to 270 and 360; sums check.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
 ₹ 630 is the whole remainder, not B's share. ₹ 480, ₹ 380, and ₹ 540 do not follow the 3 : 4 split from the computed remainder.
Common Pitfalls:
 Treating ₹ 390 as A's share of the remainder only or splitting the entire profit before subtracting the fixed remuneration.
Final Answer:
 ₹ 360
