Solution

To solve this problem, we need to understand the concept of partnership and how profits are divided. In a partnership, profits are divided based on the capital invested and the time period for which the capital was invested.

Let's denote the initial investment of A as 'x'.

  1. A's investment was 'x' for 12 months.
  2. B's investment was '2x' but it was only for the last 6 months of the year.
  3. C's investment was '3x' but it was only for the last 4 months of the year.

The ratio of their investments would be:

A : B : C = x12 : 2x6 : 3x*4 = 12 : 12 : 12 = 1 : 1 : 1

This means that the profit of Rs 27000 would be divided equally among A, B and C.

So, C's share of the profit would be Rs 27000 / 3 = Rs 9000.
