A invests ₹50000 for 6 months, total investment of A = ₹50000 x 6 = ₹300000.
B invests ₹60000 for 4 months, total investment of B = ₹60000 x 4 = ₹240000.
C ₹80000 for 5 months, total investment of C = ₹80000 x 5 = ₹400000.
Ratio of share of A, B and C = 300000 : 240000 : 400000 = 30 : 24 : 40.
Sum of ratios = 94.
Given, total earning = ₹18800.
Share of A = = = ₹6000.
Share of B = = = ₹4800.
Share of C = = = ₹8000.
Hence, the shares of A, B and C are ₹6000, ₹4800 and ₹8000 respectively.
