Q.The ratio of the capital investments of A, B, and C is 2:3:5, and the ratio of their investment durations is 3:4:5. Then, the profit will be distributed in the ratio _____.

The capital ratio of A, B, and C is 2:3:5, and the ratio of the time for which their capital is invested is 3:4:5. Thus, the profit is distributed in the ratio **6:12:25**.

Let the capital of A, B, and C be \(2x\) rupees, \(3x\) rupees, and \(5x\) rupees, respectively, and the time for which their capital is invested be \(3y\) years, \(4y\) years, and \(5y\) years, respectively.

\(\therefore\) Their profit ratio:
\( = 2x \times 3y : 3x \times 4y : 5x \times 5y \)
\( = 6:12:25 \)
