a. Rs 2250
b. Rs 1550
c. Rs 450
d. Rs 900

ANSWER: Rs 900
 
It is given that business partnership is independent of time in this case as all the investors have invested their money for same amount of time.

Let A’s capital be x, B’s capital be y and C’s capital be z.

=>x+y+z = 4650

=> 4x = 6y = 10z

=>C’s share is z so let us solve the question w.r.t. z

=>x = 5z/2

=>y = 5z/3

=>(5z/2)+(5z/3)+(z) = 4650

=>31z = 4650*6

=>z = 900
