    E none of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, Let, the investments of Raj and Anjan be Rs. 4a and Rs. 5a, respectively. So, the investment of Kumari = 1.20 × 5a = Rs. 6a So, the ratio of their investments = (12 × 4a) :(12 × 5a) :(8 × 6a) = 4:5:4 Profit share of Anjan = (5/13) × 3900 = Rs.1,500
