Answer is : Rs. 156180.07

Explanation:

Ratio of the earned profit = Ratio of the equivalent capitate of Tanvi and Anisha

= 45000 × 12 : 52000 × 4

= 45 × 3 : 52

= 135 : 52

Sum of ratios = 135 + 52 = 187

Anisha’s share

\(= Rs.\Big(\frac{52}{187}\times56165\Big) \)

\(= Rs. 156180.07\)

Akilesh Kharvi ? Jun 4 '2017 at 21:47

Answer is : 13 : 12 : 12

Explanation :

Total equivalent capital of A = 5x × 12 + 8x × 12 = Rs. 156x

Total equivalent capital of B for 1 month= 6x × 24 = Rs. 144x

Total equivalent capital of C = 8x × 12 + 4x × 12 = Rs. 144x

Required ratio = A : B : C

= 156x : 144x : 144x

= 13 : 12 : 12
