Solution

The problem is about the distribution of profit in a partnership based on the capital invested and the time for which it was invested.

Let's denote:

  • the amount A invested as 'a',
  • the amount B invested as '2a' (since it's double the amount of A),
  • the amount C invested as '3a' (since it's thrice the amount of A).

The time for which they invested the money also matters. In this case:

  • A invested for 12 months,
  • B invested for 6 months,
  • C invested for 4 months (since it's 12 months - 8 months).

The share of each partner is directly proportional to the product of the money invested and the time period for which it was invested. So, we can write:

  • A's share = a * 12,
  • B's share = 2a * 6,
  • C's share = 3a * 4.

The total profit is 54000. The total share is the sum of A's, B's, and C's shares, which is equal to the total profit. So, we can write:

a * 12 + 2a * 6 + 3a * 4 = 54000.

Solving this equation gives a = 500.

So, C's share in the profit is:

3a * 4 = 3 * 500 * 4 = 6000.

This problem has been solved
