    Question

    A profit of Rs 30,000 is to be divided among A, B and C in the ratio of 3:5:7. What will be the difference between the amounts of B and C?

    A.

    Rs. 10,000

    B.

    Rs. 4000

    C.

    Rs. 14,000

    D.

    Rs. 2000

    Correct option is B

    Given:
    Total profit = Rs. 30,000
    Ratio of A, B and C = 3 : 5 : 7
    Solution:
    Sum of ratio parts:
    3 + 5 + 7 = 15
    B's share:
    515×\frac {5}{15}\times 30000 = 13×\frac {1}{3}\times 30000 = 10000
    C's share:
    715×\frac {7}{15}\times 30000 = 14000
    Difference between B and C:
    14000 - 10000 = Rs. 4000
    Thus, correct option is (b).
