Solution

To solve this problem, we need to calculate the capital for each month for A and B, and then find the ratio of their capitals.

Step 1: Calculate the capital for each month for A and B A's capital for the first 3 months is 4 units (as the ratio is 4:5). After 3 months, A withdraws 1/4 of his capital, so his capital for the next 7 months is 3 units (4 - 4*(1/4)). B's capital for the first 3 months is 5 units. After 3 months, B withdraws 1/5 of his capital, so his capital for the next 7 months is 4 units (5 - 5*(1/5)).

Step 2: Find the ratio of their capitals The total capital for A is (43 + 37) = 33 units. The total capital for B is (53 + 47) = 43 units. So, the ratio of their capitals is 33:43.

Step 3: Calculate A's share in the profit The total profit is Rs. 760. A's share in this profit is (33/(33+43))*760 = Rs. 360.

So, the correct answer is Rs. 360.
