Investment Calculation Using Profit Ratio
The problem requires finding the investment amount for partner B based on a given profit-sharing ratio and the total investment.
Ratio Analysis
- The profit-sharing ratio between A, B, and C is given as 3 : 4 : 5.
- This ratio also represents the proportion of their investments.
- The total investment is ₹1,44,000.
Calculating B's Investment Share
Follow these steps to calculate B's investment:
- Sum the ratio parts: The total number of parts in the ratio is $3 + 4 + 5 = 12$ parts.
- Determine the value of one ratio part: Divide the total investment by the total number of parts. Value per part = $\frac{₹1,44,000}{12}$ Value per part = $₹12,000$
- Calculate B's investment: Multiply B's share of the ratio (which is 4 parts) by the value of one part. B's Investment = $4 \times ₹12,000$ B's Investment = $₹48,000$
Conclusion
B's investment is ₹48,000.
