In a company, shares of Shanta, Kanta and Bhranta are in the ratio 3 : 5 : 1. Profit of the company in a certain year is Rs. 3,33,333/-. How much is the profit of Kanta in rupees ?

  • A.1,80,180
  • B.1,85,185
  • C.1,05,105
  • D.1,11,111

Answer: B

Kanta's profit is Rs. 1,85,185.

The ratio 3 : 5 : 1 has \(3 + 5 + 1 = 9\) parts, and Kanta has 5 of them.

\[ \begin{aligned} \text{one part} &= 333333 \div 9 = 37037 \\ \text{Kanta} &= 5 \times 37037 = 185185 \end{aligned} \]

Check: Shanta gets 111,111 and Bhranta 37,037, and \(111111 + 185185 + 37037 = 333333\). The option 1,11,111 is Shanta's share, not Kanta's.
