Solution

The profit in a partnership is divided according to the capital invested and the time for which the capital is invested.

Let's calculate the capital for each partner for the time it was invested:

  1. A invested Rs.50000 for 3 years. So, his capital-time contribution is 50000*3 = 150000.

  2. B invested Rs.70000 for the first year and then withdrew Rs.20000. So, for the next two years, his investment was Rs.50000. His capital-time contribution is 700001 + 500002 = 170000.

  3. C invested Rs.80000 for the first two years and then withdrew Rs.40000. So, for the last year, his investment was Rs.40000. His capital-time contribution is 800002 + 400001 = 200000.

Now, let's calculate the ratio of their capital-time contributions:

The ratio is 150000:170000:200000.

This ratio can be simplified by dividing each number by 10000, which gives us 15:17:20.

So, the profit will be shared in the ratio 15:17:20.

None of the given options match this ratio. So, the correct answer is "None of these".
