    A, B and C enter into partnership by making investments in the ratio 3 : 5 : 7. After a year, C invests another Rs. 337600 while A withdrew Rs. 45600. The ratio of investments, then changes to 24 : 59 : 167. How much did A invest initially?

    A) Rs. 45600

    B)  Rs. 141600

    C)  Rs. 120500

    D)  Rs. 135000

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Initial investments \[=3x,\]\[5x\]and \[7x\] \[(3x-45600):5x:(7x+337600)=24:59:167\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[\frac{3x-45600}{5x}=\frac{24}{59}\]\[\therefore \]\[x=47200\] \[\therefore \] Initial investments of A = Rs.\[(47200\times 3)\]= Rs. 141600
