A, B and C enter into a partnership in the ratio 1-div-7by2 : 1-div-4by3 : 1-div-6by5 After 4 months, A increases his share 50%. If the total profit at the end of one year be Rs. 21,600, then B's share in the profit is:

[A].	Rs. 2100
[B].	Rs. 2400
[C].	Rs. 3600
[D].	Rs. 4000

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Ratio of initial investments =		7	:	4	:	6		= 105 : 40 : 36.
		2		3		5

Let the initial investments be 105x, 40x and 36x.

A : B : C =		105x x 4 +	150	x 105x x 8		: (40x x 12) : (36x x 12)
			100

= 1680x : 480x : 432x = 35 : 10 : 9.

Hence, B's share = Rs.		21600 x	10		= Rs. 4000.
