Solution

Let's solve this step by step:

Step 1: Let's assume the investment of C as x. Therefore, the investment of B becomes 2x/3 and the investment of A becomes 3 times B's investment, which is 2x.

Step 2: The ratio of their investments would be A : B : C = 2x : 2x/3 : x = 6 : 2 : 3.

Step 3: The total profit of Rs.8500 would be divided among A, B, and C in the ratio of their investments. So, the total parts into which the profit would be divided would be 6 + 2 + 3 = 11.

Step 4: The share of B would be (2/11) * 8500.

Step 5: Calculate the above expression to get B's share.

So, B's share of the profit would be Rs.1545.45.
