Q.Fatima, Shreya, and Smita jointly started a business with a total investment of ₹6000. After one year, Fatima, Shreya, and Smita receive profits of ₹50, ₹100, and ₹150, respectively. Smita's investment in the business is: - (a) ₹ 1000 (b) ₹ 2000 (c) ₹ 3000 (d) ₹ 4000
Answer: C
Fatima, Shreya, and Smita's profit share ratio:
\(=50:100:150\)
\(=1:2:3\)
\(=\cfrac{1}{6}:\cfrac{2}{6}:\cfrac{3}{6}\)

\(\therefore\) Smita's invested amount:
\(=6000\times \cfrac{3}{6}\) ₹
\(=3000\) ₹
