a. Total amount invested in the business in Rs. 22,000.

b. Profit earned at the end of 3 years is 3/8 of the total investment.

c. The average amount of profit earned per year is Rs. 2750.

A) Only c is sufficient	B) Both a & b are sufficient
C) Both A & B gives result	D) None

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Both A & B gives result

Explanation:

a and b give, profit after 3 years = Rs.(3/8 x 22000) = Rs.8250.

From c also, profit after 3 years = Rs. (2750 x 3) = Rs. 8250.

∴ P's share = Rs.(8250 x 5/11) = Rs. 3750.

Thus, (either C is redundant) or (a and b are redundant).
