Correct option is C
Given:
A's investment = ₹ 63,000
B's investment = ₹ 1,08,000
Profits are divided equally at the end of the year.
Formula Used:
Ratio of Profits = Ratio of (Investment × Time)
Solution:
Let B's investment period be x months.
A invested his money for the full year, which is 12 months.
The ratio of their profit shares is:
Since profits are equal, the ratio is 1:1.
108x = 756
x = 7
This means B invested for 7 months.
Therefore, B joined after: 12 - 7 = 5 months.
Final Answer
So the correct answer is (c)
