A, B and C started a shop by investing Rs. 27,000, Rs. 72,000 and Rs. 81,000 respectively. At the end of the year, the profits were distributed among them. If Cs share of profit be Rs. 36,000, then the total profit was:

Options:
A .  30000
B .  60000
C .  80000
D .  120000
E .  None of these
Answer: Option C
 -    A : B : C = 27000 : 72000 : 81000 = 3: 8 : 9. so, C’s share : Total Profit = 9 : 20.
  Let the total profit be Rs. x. Then, 9/20 = 36000/x or x
  = 36000 x 20 / 9 = 80000.
