Three partners, A, B and C shared profits in the ratio 4 : 5 : 6 . If C's share of the profit was Rs. 200 more than that of A, find the total profit generated by them.

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Given profit sharing ratio A : B : C = 4 : 5 : 6 . Let the profits shared by them be 4 x, 5 x, and 6 x respectively. The total profit = 4 x + 5 x + 6 x = 15 x . According to the question, C's share is Rs. 200 more than A's share: 6 x - 4 x = 200 2 x = 200 ⟹ x = 100 Therefore, the total profit generated: Total Profit = 15 x = 15 \times 100 = Rs. 1, 500
