Q. A, B and C start a business. A invests 3 times as much as B invests and B invests two-third of what C invests. Then, the ratio of capitals of A, B and C is ?
β
Correct Answer: (D)
6 : 2 : 3
Explanation: Suppose C invests Rs. x then, B invests Rs. 2x/3 and A invests Rs. 2x
∴ Ratio of investment of A, B, C = 2x : (2x/3) : x = 6 : 2 : 3
∴ Ratio of investment of A, B, C = 2x : (2x/3) : x = 6 : 2 : 3

Suppose C invests Rs. x then, B invests Rs. 2x/3 and A invests Rs. 2x
∴ Ratio of investment of A, B, C = 2x : (2x/3) : x = 6 : 2 : 3
∴ Ratio of investment of A, B, C = 2x : (2x/3) : x = 6 : 2 : 3
