 11A = 770 × 2 7320
 A = 140 =  7320  7200  × 726 = Rs 366
Thus, A’s share is Rs 140

3. (1) According to question,  x = 250
Investment of A = 50000 ×12 = Rs 600000 So, required difference
Investment of B = 60000 × (12 - x) = 30x - 9x = 21x = Rs 5250
Investment of C = 70000 × (12 - x) 9. (2) By question, 2.5% of profit
