1,800
Steps/Work
Ratio of the capitals of A, B and C
= 2000 × 6 + 1000 × 6 : 2000 × 6 + 1000 × 6 : 2000 × 6 + 3000 × 6
= 18000 : 18000 : 30000 = 18 : 18 : 30
B’s share = (6600 × 18â„66) = 1800
Answer C
= 2000 × 6 + 1000 × 6 : 2000 × 6 + 1000 × 6 : 2000 × 6 + 3000 × 6
= 18000 : 18000 : 30000 = 18 : 18 : 30
B’s share = (6600 × 18â„66) = 1800
Answer C
