C invests for 2 months more than as compared to B. After a year, C receives 5/9th share of total profit. Find the time for which B was there in the business
According to question: Ratio of investment of A, B and C = 2 × 12 : 3x : 6(x + 2) C receives 5/9th of total shares, means shares of C = 5 and that of A + B = 4 Therefore, => 6(x + 2)/(24 + 3x) = 5/4 => 24(x + 2) = 120 + 15x => 24x + 48 = 15x + 120 => 9x = 72 => x = 8
