Simran started a software business by investing Rs. 50,000. After six months, Nanda joined her with a capital of Rs. 80,000. After 3 years, they earned a profit of Rs. 24,500. What was Simran's share in the profit?
Rs. 9,423
Rs. 10,250
Rs. 12,500
Rs. 10,500
Answer: Option
Explanation:

Simran : Nanda = (50000 x 36) : (80000 x 30) = 3 : 4.

Simran's share = Rs. 24500 x 3 = Rs. 10,500.

If rs150 be divided among A, B, C in such a way that A gets 2/3 of B and B gets 1/4 of what C gets then their share are respectively.

Can anyone answer this?

It should be 50000*6+80000*30 because within 6mnth Simran invested that much money.

If this is a question of partnership, we have always learnt that in case there is mention of partnership deed, we take ratio as equal.

Why in this question have we divided the profit in equivalent ratio?
