Correct Answer: 108 : 75 : 143
Solution :
Investment made by Kapil = INR 30,00,000
Time of investment made by Kapil = 36 months
The investment made by Kunal = INR 25,00,000
Time of investment made by Kunal = 30 months
The investment made by Saloni = INR 55,00,000
Time of investment made by Saloni = 26 months
Now, the Profit of an individual is proportional to the product of the Investment of an individual and his time of investment.
So, Required ratio = (3000000 × 36) : (2500000 × 30) : (5500000 × 26)
= (6 × 36) : (5 × 30) : (11 × 26)
= 108 : 75 : 143
Hence, the correct answer is 108 : 75 : 143.
