A, B and C enter into a partnership. A initially invests Rs. 25 lakhs ...
A : B : C
= (25 lakhs × 1) + 35 lakhs × 2) : (35 lakhs × 2 + 25 lakhs × 1) : (30 lakhs × 3)
= 95 lakhs : 95 lakhs : 90 lakhs
= 19 : 19 : 18

A, B and C enter into a partnership. A initially invests Rs. 25 lakhs ...
Given, A initially invests Rs. 25 lakhs and adds another Rs. 10 lakhs after one year, B initially invests Rs. 35 lakhs and withdraws Rs. 10 lakhs after 2 years and C invests Rs. 30 lakhs.
Let's calculate the investment of A over 3 years.
For the first year, A invests Rs. 25 lakhs and for the next two years, he invests Rs. 35 lakhs.
So, the total investment of A = 25 + 35 + 35 = 95 lakhs.
Similarly, let's calculate the investment of B over 3 years.
For the first two years, B invests Rs. 35 lakhs and for the last year, his investment is Rs. 25 lakhs.
So, the total investment of B = 35 + 35 + 25 = 95 lakhs.
The investment of C over 3 years is Rs. 30 lakhs.
Therefore, the ratio of their investments is 95:95:30, which can be simplified to 19:19:6.
Now, let's calculate the profits for 3 years.
Let P be the total profit for 3 years.
For the first year, A gets 1/3 of the profit, B gets 1/3 of the profit and C gets 1/3 of the profit.
For the next two years, A gets 2/5 of the profit, B gets 2/5 of the profit and C gets 1/5 of the profit.
Therefore, the share of profit for A = (1/3)P + (2/5)P = (11/15)P
The share of profit for B = (1/3)P + (2/5)P = (11/15)P
The share of profit for C = (1/3)P + (1/5)P = (8/15)P
Therefore, the ratio of their profits is (11/15):(11/15):(8/15), which can be simplified to 11:11:8.
Hence, option D, None of these, is the correct answer.
