The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, let's break it down step by step. ### Step 1: Determine A's Investment A invested \( 33\frac{1}{3}\% \) of the total capital. This percentage can be converted into a fraction: \[ 33\frac{1}{3}\% = \frac{100}{3\cdot100} = \frac{1}{3} \] So, A's investment is: \[ A's\ investment = \frac{1}{3} \times Total\ Capital \] ### Step 2: Calculate Remaining Capital After A's Investment After A's investment, the remaining capital is: \[ Remaining\ Capital = Total\ Capital - A's\ investment = Total\ Capital - \frac{1}{3} \times Total\ Capital = \frac{2}{3} \times Total\ Capital \] ### Step 3: Determine B's Investment B invested \( 33\frac{1}{3}\% \) of the remaining capital. Using the same fraction as before: \[ B's\ investment = \frac{1}{3} \times Remaining\ Capital = \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{2}{3} \times Total\ Capital = \frac{2}{9} \times Total\ Capital \] ### Step 4: Calculate Remaining Capital After B's Investment After B's investment, the remaining capital is: \[ Remaining\ Capital = Remaining\ Capital - B's\ investment = \frac{2}{3} \times Total\ Capital - \frac{2}{9} \times Total\ Capital \] To perform this subtraction, we need a common denominator: \[ \frac{2}{3} = \frac{6}{9} \] So, \[ Remaining\ Capital = \frac{6}{9} \times Total\ Capital - \frac{2}{9} \times Total\ Capital = \frac{4}{9} \times Total\ Capital \] ### Step 5: Determine C's Investment C invested the remaining capital: \[ C's\ investment = \frac{4}{9} \times Total\ Capital \] ### Step 6: Calculate the Total Investment Now we can summarize the investments: - A's investment: \( \frac{1}{3} \times Total\ Capital = \frac{3}{9} \times Total\ Capital \) - B's investment: \( \frac{2}{9} \times Total\ Capital \) - C's investment: \( \frac{4}{9} \times Total\ Capital \) ### Step 7: Calculate the Profit Shares The profit is distributed according to the amount invested: - Total profit = Rs. 20,250 - Total shares = \( 3 + 2 + 4 = 9 \) Profit per share: \[ Profit\ per\ share = \frac{20,250}{9} = 2,250 \] ### Step 8: Calculate Individual Profits Now we can calculate the profits for B and C: - B's profit: \( 2 \times 2,250 = 4,500 \) - C's profit: \( 4 \times 2,250 = 9,000 \) ### Step 9: Find the Difference Between C's and B's Profit The difference between C's profit and B's profit is: \[ C's\ profit - B's\ profit = 9,000 - 4,500 = 4,500 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the profit of C exceeds the profit of B by Rs. 4,500. ---
