A B C share profits in ratio four to three to two. Cs deficiency of Rs 9000 is to be borne by A and B in their profit ratio. How much will B bear?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: About Rs 3857

The direct answer is option A: approximately ₹3,857. The deficiency of ₹9,000 is to be borne only by A and B, and their ratio is their profit ratio, 4:3. Add their ratio parts: 4 + 3 = 7. B’s fraction is 3/7. Therefore B’s burden = ₹9,000 × 3/7 = ₹27,000/7 = ₹3,857.14 approximately. Rounded to the nearest rupee, this is about ₹3,857. Option A is correct. Option B, ₹4,500, would divide the deficiency equally, but the question requires the 4:3 ratio. Option C, ₹3,000, does not represent B’s 3/7 share; it would be one-third of the deficiency. Option D, approximately ₹5,143, is A’s share, because A bears 4/7 × ₹9,000 = ₹5,142.86. Check: approximately ₹5,143 + ₹3,857 = ₹9,000. The partner with the larger ratio bears the larger part. Memory cue: restrict the ratio to the partners bearing the deficiency, then divide.
