What will be A’s share of profit if the total profit is Rupees 1000 and is to be divided amongst A, B and C in the ratio 3 : 2 : 5?
Rs. 300
Concept:
The total sum of the ratios = 3 + 2 + 5 = 10
Total profit is 8 units
10 units = 1000 rupees
1 unit = 1000/10 = 100 rupees
A's share in units = 3 units
Thus, 100 × 3 = 300 rupees
