Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

  • A’s profit: B’s profit: C’s profit $ =320\times 4:510\times 3:270\times 5 $ $ =1280:1530:1350 $ $ =128:153:135 $

$ \therefore $ $ ProfitofA=\frac{128}{(128+153+135)}\times 208 $ $ =\frac{128}{416}\times 208=64 $ $ ProfitofB=\frac{153}{416}\times 208=76.5 $ $ ProfitofC=\frac{135}{416}\times 208=67.50 $
