Solution

Let's denote the investments of A, B, and C as a, b, and c respectively.

From the problem, we know that:

3a = 2b = 4c

This implies that the investments of A, B, and C are in the ratio 4:6:3.

The total ratio is 4+6+3 = 13.

Given that C's share out of the total profit is Rs 4863, we can find the value of each unit of the ratio.

So, 3 (C's ratio) units = Rs 4863

Therefore, 1 unit = Rs 4863 / 3 = Rs 1621

A's share is then 4 (A's ratio) units * Rs 1621/unit = Rs 6484.

This problem has been solved
