In a business, A and C invested amounts in the ratio 2 : 1 , whereas the ratio between amounts invested by A and B was 3 : 2 . If Rs 157300 was their profit, how much amount did B receive?

A. 48000
B. 48200
C. 48400
D. 48600

Explanation :

Assume that investment of C = x
Then, investment of A =2x
Investment of B = 4x/3

A:B:C = 2x : 4x/3 : x
          = 2 : 4/3 : 1
          = 6 : 4 : 3
B's share  = 157300 * 4/(6+4+3)
                = 157300*4/13
                = 12100*4
                = 48400
