Quantitative Aptitude (CUET) Data Sufficiency

A, B, and C together start a business with a total investment of 15000. At the end of the year, the total profit is Rs.3000. What is A’s share in the profit?

I. A’s contribution is 3/2 times of B’s

II. B’s contribution is twice that of C.

III. A’s contribution is thrice that of C.

I and II

II and III

All I, II and III

Any two of the three

None of the Above

Explanation:

C = x
From I and II
C = x, B = 2x, A = (3/2 * 2x) => A = 3x
From II and III
C = x, B = 2x, A = 3x
From I and III
C = x, A = 3x, B = (2/3 * 3x) => B = 2x
A:B:C = 3:2:1, A’s share = (3000 * (3/6)) = 1500
Thus any two of the three statements, are sufficient to answer the question.

Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
