In a partnership for a business, Changaz invests Rs.6000 for complete year & Nasir invests Rs.3000 for 6 months. What is Nasir’s share if they earn Rs.240 as profit?

A. 120
B. 80
C. 192
D. 48

If A invests amount C1 for T1 time and his share of profit is P1, and B invests amount C2 for T2 time and his share of profit is P2, then, C1 * T1 / C2 * T2 = P1/P2
If P is the Nasir’s share of profit, then Changaz gets (240 – P)
Therefore, 6000 * 12 / 3000 * 6 = (240 – P) / P = 72/ 18 = 4
4P = (240 – P)
5P = 240
P = 48
