A and B started a business in partnership by investing ₹20,000 and ₹15,000, respectively. After six months, C joined them with ₹20,000. What will be B’s share in the total profit of ₹20,000 earned at the end of 2 years from the start of the business?
₹6,000
Over the 2-year (24-month) period, weight each partner by capital × months.
A: 20000 × 24 = 4,80,000. B: 15000 × 24 = 3,60,000. C: 20000 × 18 = 3,60,000 (C joined after 6 months).
Profit-sharing ratio A : B : C = 480 : 360 : 360 = 4 : 3 : 3. Total parts = 10, so B's share = 3/10 × ₹20,000 = ₹6,000.
Hence, the answer is ₹6,000.
